I get the following error when I try to run the following python code import mpi4py.MPI as MPI comm = MPI.COMM_WORLD
MPI.File.Open(comm,"some.file") $ mpirun -np 1 python test_mpi.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "test_mpi.py", line 3, in <module> MPI.File.Open(comm," h5ex_d_alloc.h5") File "File.pyx", line 67, in mpi4py.MPI.File.Open (src/mpi4py.MPI.c:89639) mpi4py.MPI.Exception: MPI_ERR_OTHER: known error not in list -------------------------------------------------------------------------- mpirun noticed that the job aborted, but has no info as to the process that caused that situation. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- My mpirun version is (Open MPI) 1.6.2. I installed openmpi using the dorsal script (https://github.com/FEniCS/dorsal) for Redhat Enterprise 6 (OS I am using, release 6.5) . It configured the build as following : ./configure --enable-mpi-thread-multiple --enable-opal-multi-threads --with-threads=posix --disable-mpi-profile I need emphasize that I do not have root acces on the system I am running my application.
