Ok. I went back to look at your logs.
1. Errors in config.log are normal and expected. You can ignore them. The configure script is probing your system, so finding things that *don't* work is normal and expected. 2. The error you're seeing is because the Verbs network API has moved on since Open MPI v1.10. I.e., the Verbs library in RHEL 7.6 is a significantly later version that existed in Open MPI v1.10 timeframe, and it's just not compatible. Hence, the "openib" BTL plugin is failing to compile. You can avoid building the openib BTL plugin by passing --enable-no-build=btl:openib on the configure command line, but you'll lose network performance if you have an InfiniBand, iWARP, or RoCE-based network. If you're already just running over TCP, you won't notice any difference. ----- All that being said, I'd be very surprised if WRF only supports Open MPI v1.10; the v1.10 series dates back to 2015. That's ancient in terms of computer software -- it would be amazing if WRF didn't support later versions of Open MPI.

I think my WRF-chem model needs the openmpi v1.10.1 library. Recently, my service got upgrade include openmpi v1.10.1. After that, I cannot run my model any more under the high version of openmpi. Thus, I tried to install the openmpi v1.10.1 by myself.

Is there any chance you can update to 4.0.2? That's the latest version (and it has significantly better MPI_THREAD_MULITPLE support).
