Is hostname the name of the system I'm running it on?
Just tried that. Got the same error message -- Vimal From: users-boun...@open-mpi.org [mailto:users-boun...@open-mpi.org] On Behalf Of Ralph Castain Sent: Tuesday, June 19, 2012 1:03 PM To: Open MPI Users Subject: Re: [OMPI users] Using OpenMPI on a network You're getting that error because you failed to specify any hosts on your cmd line - so OMPI has no idea where to launch the procs. It looked for a default hostfile, but didn't find that either. Just add a -host <hostname> option to your command line and tell it where you want the procs to run.

But you should be able to make OpenMPI & mpiexec work without a network if you're just running in local memory. There's probably a runtime parameter to set but I don't know what it is. Maybe Jeff or Shiqing can weigh in with what that is. Damien On 15/06/2012 1:10 PM, vimalmat...@eaton.com wrote: Just figured it out. The only thing different from when it ran yesterday to today was I was connected to a network. So I connected my laptop to a network and it worked again. Thanks for all your help, Damien! I'm sure I'm gonna get stuck more along the way so hoping you can help. -- Vimal From: users-boun...@open-mpi.org [mailto:users-boun...@open-mpi.org] On Behalf Of Damien Sent: Friday, June 15, 2012 2:57 PM To: Open MPI Users Subject: Re: [OMPI users] Building MPI on Windows Hmmm. Two things. Can you run helloworldMPI.exe on it's own? It should output "Number of threads = 1, My rank = 0" Also, can you post the output of ompi_info ? I think you might still have some path mixups. A successful OpenMPI build with this simple program should just work. If you still have the other OpenMPIs installed from the binaries, you might want to try uninstalling all of them and rebooting. Also if you rebuilt OpenMPI and helloworldMPI with VS 2010, make sure that helloworldMPI is actually linked to those VS2010 OpenMPI libs by setting the right lib path in the Linker options. Linking to VS2008 libs and trying to run with VS2010 dlls/exes could cause problems too.

Now the bad news is that I'm trying to run the program again using mpiexec and it won't! I get these error messages: orte_rml_base_select failed orte_ess_set_name failed, with a bunch of text saying it could be due to configuration or environment problems and will make sense only to an OpenMPI developer.

It runs fine on my machine. You'll need to change the include and lib paths as we discussed before to match your paths, and copy those bin files over to the Debug directory. Run it with this to start: "mpiexec -n 1 helloworldMPI.exe". Then change the -n 1 to -n x where x is the number of cores you have. Say yes to allowing mpiexec firewall access if that comes up. If this bombs out, there's something wrong on your machine.
