Hi John Doe

Set these environment variables in your .profile/.bashrc or .[t]cshrc file.
If you set them in the shell prompt, before you run the job, I am not sure they 
will
propagate to the MPI processes, even if you are running in a standalone machine 
[which apparently you are].
Ralph may clarify this point about the environment variables' inheritance.

Alternatively, you could also pass the environment variables to the processes 
in the mpiexec command line, e.g. [in bash]:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=whatever
export PATH=whaever_else
mpiexec -x LD_LIBRARY_PATH -x PATH -np=4 ./my_program.

I hope this helps,
Edward Arnold
