Yep. That was the problem. It works beautifully now.
Thanks for prodding me to take another look.
With regards to openmpi-1.6.5, the system that I'm compiling and running on,
SLES10, contains some pretty dated software (e.g. Linux 2.6.x, python 2.4,
gcc 4.1.2). Is it possible there's simply an
incompatibility lurking in there somewhere that would trip
openmpi-1.6.5 but not openmpi-1.4.3?

Hi Greg
FWIW, we have OpenMPI 1.6.5 installed
(and we have used OMPI 1.4.5, 1.4.4, 1.4.3, ..., 1.2.8, before)
in our older cluster that has CentOS 5.2, Linux kernel 2.6.18,
gcc 4.1.2, Python 2.4.3, etc.
Parallel programs compile and run with OMPI 1.6.5 without problems.
I hope this helps,
Gus Correa

Hmm... It looks like CMAKE was somehow finding openmpi-1.6.5 instead of
openmpi-1.4.3, despite the environment variables being set otherwise. This
is likely the explanation. I'll try to chase that down.

Ok. I only mention this because the "mca_paffinity_linux.so: undefined
symbol: mca_base_param_reg_int" type of message is almost always an
indicator of two different versions being installed into the same tree.

I'm fairly sure I was careful to check that the LD_LIBRARY_PATH was
set
correctly, but I'll check again.

The reason for deleting the openmpi-1.6.5 installation was that I
went back
and installed openmpi-1.4.3 and the problem (mostly) went away.
Openmpi-
1.4.3 can run the simple tests without issue, but on my "real"
program, I'm getting symbol lookup errors:
mca_paffinity_linux.so: undefined symbol: mca_base_param_reg_int
This sounds like you are mixing 1.6.x and 1.4.x in the same
installation
tree.
This can definitely lead to sadness.
More specifically: installing 1.6 over an existing 1.4 installation
(and vice
versa) is definitely NOT supported. The set of plugins that the two
install are different, and can lead to all manner of weird/undefined
behavior.
FWIW: I typically install Open MPI into a tree by itself. And if I
later want to remove that installation, I just "rm -rf" that tree.
Then I can install a different version of OMPI into that same tree
(because the prior tree is completely gone).
However, if you can't install OMPI into a tree by itself, you can
"make uninstall" from the source tree, and that should surgically
completely remove OMPI from the installation tree. Then it is safe
to install a different version of OMPI into that same tree.
Can you verify that you had installed OMPI into completely clean
trees? If you didn't, I can imagine that causing the kinds of
errors that you
described.
