The --prefix directory is a typo and no longer exists on our system. We are running 1.4-4 version of OpenMPI

Actually, that isn't totally correct and may point to the problem. The mpirun cmd itself points to a version of OMPI located in /opt/openmpi. The error messages are clearly from a 1.3+ version - they look totally different for 1.2 However, the prefix passed to the backend nodes points to /usr/lib, and indeed looks like a 1.2.8 version. Waris: is this a mistype? Are these two versions actually the same? If not, that would explain the problem - you can't mix OMPI versions. As written, the cmd line has the potential to mix one version of mpirun with another version of the daemons. > > -- > Jeff Squyres > jsquy...@cisco.com > For corporate legal information go to: > http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/ > > _______________________________________________ > users mailing list > us...@open-mpi.org > http://www.open-mpi.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/users _______________________________________________ users mailing list us...@open-mpi.org http://www.open-mpi.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/users
