Hello All, I am trying to build openMPI on a server (I do not have sudo on this server).
When running make, I get this error: libtool: compile: gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../opal/include -I../../orte/include -I../../ompi/include -I../../opal/mca/paffinity/linux/plpa/src/libplpa -I../.. -I/usr/include -g -finline-functions -fno-strict-aliasing -pthread -fvisibility=hidden -MT dt_module.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/dt_module.Tpo -c dt_module.c -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/dt_module.o dt_module.c:177: error: expected expression before ‘)’ token dt_module.c:182: error: expected expression before ‘)’ token dt_module.c:187: error: expected expression before ‘)’ token dt_module.c:192: error: expected expression before ‘)’ token dt_module.c:203: error: expected expression before ‘)’ token dt_module.c:208: error: expected expression before ‘)’ token dt_module.c:219: error: expected expression before ‘)’ token dt_module.c:224: error: expected expression before ‘)’ token dt_module.c:229: error: expected expression before ‘)’ token dt_module.c:234: error: expected expression before ‘)’ token dt_module.c:250: error: expected expression before ‘)’ token make[2]: *** [dt_module.lo] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/raid/private/openmpi-1.4.2/ompi/datatype' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/raid/private/openmpi-1.4.2/ompi' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 Before this, I had some warnings: WARNING: `aclocal-1.10' is missing on your system.

You have another version of autoconf. It may work, but is not guaranteed to. If you have problems, you may need to regenerate the build system entirely. To do so, use the procedure documented by the package, typically `autoreconf'. /bin/bash ./config.status --recheck Is there any relationship? If not, what else am I missing? Thanks a lot for pointers. Best Devendra
