Hi Shiqing, I have solved the problem with the double quotes in OPENMPI_HOME but there is still something wrong.
set OPENMPI_HOME="c:\Program Files (x86)\openmpi-1.6.1" mpicc init_finalize.c Cannot open configuration file "c:\Program Files (x86)\openmpi-1.6.1"/share/openmpi\mpicc-wrapper-data.txt Error parsing data file mpicc: Not found Everything is OK if you remove the double quotes which Windows automatically adds. set OPENMPI_HOME=c:\Program Files (x86)\openmpi-1.6.1 mpicc init_finalize.c Microsoft (R) 32-Bit C/C++-Optimierungscompiler Version 16.00.40219.01 für 80x86 ... mpiexec init_finalize.exe -------------------------------------------------------------------------- WARNING: An invalid value was given for btl_tcp_if_exclude. This value will be ignored. Local host: hermes Value: 127.0.0.1/8 Message: Did not find interface matching this subnet -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello! I get the output from my program but also a warning from Open MPI. The new value for the loopback device was introduced a short time ago when I have had problems with the loopback device on Solaris (it used "lo0" instead of your default "lo"). How can I avoid this message? The 64-bit version of my program still hangs.
