Dear MPICH2. I want to build MPICH2 package. I have downloaded mpich2-1.5.tar.gz from http://www.mcs.anl.gov/research/projects/mpich2staging/goodell/downloads/ind... My computer OS: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.2 (Santiago) I created folder: /tmp/MPICH2/src there I executed: tar xfz mpich2-1.5.tar.gz and got new folder (/tmp/MPICH2/src/mpich2-1.5) with mpich2 files and sub-folders. Now I created folder: /tmp/MPICH2/build from directory /tmp/MPICH2/build, I executed: ../src/mpich2-1.5/configure --prefix=/tmp/MPICH2/install --enable-error-checking=runtime --enable-g=dbg CFLAGS=-fPIC CXXFLAGS=-fPIC FFLAGS=-fpic --enable-threads=runtime --enable-totalview --enable-static --disable-f77 --disable-fc --no-create --no-recursion | & tee c.txt Then I tried to execute (still from folder: /tmp/MPICH2/build): make but got an error: make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. Then I tried to execute "ls" (still from folder: /tmp/MPICH2/build) and got following ouput: config.log config.lt config.status config.system c.txt lib libtool src Then I tried to execute "ls" (from folder: /tmp/MPICH2/src/mpich2-1.5) and got following ouput: -rw-r--r-- 1 anatol-g ws 43319 Oct 8 2012 aclocal.m4 -rwxr-xr-x 1 anatol-g ws 26809 Sep 27 2012 autogen.sh -rw-r--r-- 1 anatol-g ws 55773 Oct 8 2012 CHANGES drwxr-xr-x 2 anatol-g ws 4096 Oct 8 2012 confdb -rwxr-xr-x 1 anatol-g ws 1802576 Oct 8 2012 configure -rw-r--r-- 1 anatol-g ws 228771 Oct 4 2012 configure.ac drwxr-xr-x 3 anatol-g ws 4096 Oct 8 2012 contrib -rw-r--r-- 1 anatol-g ws 1439 Jul 17 2012 COPYRIGHT -rw-r--r-- 1 anatol-g ws 8076 Feb 27 2009 COPYRIGHT.rtf drwxr-xr-x 13 anatol-g ws 4096 Oct 8 2012 doc drwxr-xr-x 8 anatol-g ws 4096 Oct 8 2012 examples drwxr-xr-x 5 anatol-g ws 4096 Oct 8 2012 maint -rw-r--r-- 1 anatol-g ws 17216 Oct 4 2012 Makefile.am -rw-r--r-- 1 anatol-g ws 2579709 Oct 8 2012 Makefile.in -rwxr-xr-x 1 anatol-g ws 9886 Nov 12 2010 makewindist.bat drwxr-xr-x 4 anatol-g ws 4096 Oct 8 2012 man -rw-r--r-- 1 anatol-g ws 21620 Oct 5 2010 mpich2.def -rw-r--r-- 1 anatol-g ws 51983 May 2 2012 mpich2-doxygen.in -rw-r--r-- 1 anatol-g ws 556769 Nov 12 2010 mpich2.sln -rw-r--r-- 1 anatol-g ws 115749 Jan 24 2011 mpich2s.vcproj -rw-r--r-- 1 anatol-g ws 234598 Jan 24 2011 mpich2.vcproj -rw-r--r-- 1 anatol-g ws 15828 Oct 5 2010 mpi.def -rw-r--r-- 1 anatol-g ws 10010 May 29 2010 mpi.vcproj -rwxr-xr-x 1 anatol-g ws 4759 May 29 2010 mpl.vcproj -rw-r--r-- 1 anatol-g ws 38842 Oct 8 2012 README -rw-r--r-- 1 anatol-g ws 12689 Oct 8 2012 README.envvar -rw-r--r-- 1 anatol-g ws 20773 Aug 24 2012 README.winbin.rtf -rw-r--r-- 1 anatol-g ws 3758 Oct 3 2012 RELEASE_NOTES drwxr-xr-x 19 anatol-g ws 4096 Oct 8 2012 src -rw-r--r-- 1 anatol-g ws 2622 Oct 8 2012 subsys_include.m4 drwxr-xr-x 9 anatol-g ws 4096 Oct 8 2012 test -rwxr-xr-x 1 anatol-g ws 335084 Jul 10 2012 winconfigure.wsf drwxr-xr-x 4 anatol-g ws 4096 Oct 8 2012 www Can you please advice: - What I did wrong?
