Note that it is not advisable to run autogen from a distribution tarball. Specifically: we include the autogen script for advanced users who want to tweak their own Open MPI copy (without cloning from git), but 99.99% of users can just run "./configure ..." directly (without first running autogen). If you're an advanced user and want / need to run autogen -- cool, go for it. But if you're just downloading an Open MPI tarball and are trying to build / install it, there's no need to run autogen.
Put simply: in official release tarballs of Open MPI, we've already run autogen for you.

About a month ago I correctly configured openmpi on my mac and the ‘mpirun -np 2 ./hello.c’ ran correctly. But today, it gave me the following error: [Riddhis-MacBook-Air.local:89582] [[56525,0],0] ORTE_ERROR_LOG: Bad parameter in file orted/pmix/pmix_server.c at line 262 [Riddhis-MacBook-Air.local:89582] [[56525,0],0] ORTE_ERROR_LOG: Bad parameter in file ess_hnp_module.c at line 667 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It looks like orte_init failed for some reason; your parallel process is likely to abort. There are many reasons that a parallel process can fail during orte_init; some of which are due to configuration or environment problems. This failure appears to be an internal failure; here's some additional information (which may only be relevant to an Open MPI developer): pmix server init failed --> Returned value Bad parameter (-5) instead of ORTE_SUCCESS I tried to google this error and the only thing I found was to change the TMPDIR name to a shorter name. But I don’t think I understand what it’s asking me to do. Kindly help since I am not able to understand what went wrong in one month and mpirun stopped working.
