Hi, 1) Openmpi in PC1
I installed openmpi-1.4.3 using the OpenSuse 32b v. 12.1 repository as well as openmpi devel All mpi executables are present so are the libraries in lib directory. I set the environment as ( .bashrc) PATH=$PATH:/usr/lib/mpi/gcc/openmpi/bin PATH=$PATH:/usr/lib/mpi/gcc/openmpi/lib export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/lib/mpi/gcc/openmpi/lib export PATH When I run any of the test examples (eg. mpirun hello_c.c or any program that has mpi interface included I get the message ----------------------------- mpirun was unable to launch the specified application as it could not find an executable: Executable: hello_c.c Node: linux-curie while attempting to start process rank 0. ----------------------- typing echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH I should get something like /usr/lib/mpi/gcc/openmpi/lib. The only output I get is /usr/local/atlas3.10/lib (which is the blas/lapack library). Also Intel compilers library is not shown. 1) Openmpi installation in PC2 In OpenSuse v 12.1 64b I installed openmpi-1.4.3 downloading it from the openmpi site. No error occured during ./configure, make, make install process. The environment settings change a little but are very similar to those mentioned under PC1. The same message as above is occuring. in this case typing echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH I get the correct output from the mpi library as /usr/local/lib64 and the executables are in /usr/local/bin. Any help is wellcome Regards Bruno
