Dear Jeff:: Many thanks for your kind response. Since before changing to version 1.6.4, I had installed (via "apt-get install") a 1.5 version of openmpi, I also was suspicious that ompi_info was referring to remnants of this old mpi version, though I did my best of removing it. Nonetheless, when cheching again, actually there still was an ompi_info in /usr/bin from this previous installation. Upon removing these ompi-s from /usr/bin, the ompi_info now indeed yields the desired result: Fort integer size: 8
Thanks again and best wishes, Hans H. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeff Squyres (jsquyres)" <jsquy...@cisco.com> To: "Open MPI Users" <us...@open-mpi.org> Sent: Thursday, May 16, 2013 3:33 PM Subject: Re: [OMPI users] Subject: Building openmpi-1.6.4 with64-bit integers > Looking at your config.log, it looks like OMPI correctly determined that the Fortran INTEGER size is 8.
