Dear Users, I have run into a problem trying to compile openmpi-1.4.3. I am running SuSE Linux 11.4 in VMware-7.0.1. For compilers I am using l_fcompxe_intel64_2011.5.220 and l_ccompxe_intel64_2011.5.220 which are newly issued. It appears to go through the compile command: ./compile LIBDIRS="/opt/intel/composerxe-2011.5.220/compiler/lib/intel64" --prefix=/opt/openmpi CC=icc CXX=icpc F77=ifort F90=ifort After running "make all install" the end of the output gives the error: test -z "/opt/openmpi/share/openmpi/amca-param-sets" || /bin/mkdir -p "/opt/openmpi/share/openmpi/amca-param-sets" /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 'amca-param-sets/example.conf' '/opt/openmpi/share/openmpi/amca-param-sets/example.conf' /usr/bin/install: cannot remove `/opt/openmpi/share/openmpi/amca-param-sets/example.conf': Permission denied make[2]: *** [install-dist_amca_paramDATA] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/amos/Downloads/openmpi-1.4.3/contrib' make[1]: *** [install-am] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/amos/Downloads/openmpi-1.4.3/contrib' make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 I have tried using examples trying to run one of the examples and it gives an error /Downloads/openmpi-1.4.3/examples> mpicc -np 4 connectivity_c.c mpicc: error while loading shared libraries: libimf.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory This is the reason for the LIBDIRS in the compiling command. I have run into the same error trying to set up espresso-4.3.1. The result occurs whether I use root or a user login. The file is present being the next entry in the string in LIBDIRS. Any help would be much appreciated.
