Try MPICH 3.0.4. MPICH 1.2.6 is ancient and not supported. This is how I build MPICH 3.0.4. You will have to edit the prefix option appropriately. wget http://www.mpich.org/static/downloads/3.0.4/mpich-3.0.4.tar.gz tar -xzf mpich-3.0.4.tar.gz cd mpich-3.0.4 mkdir build-gcc cd build-gcc/ ../configure CC=gcc CXX=g++ FC=gfortran F77=gfortran --enable-fc --enable-f77 --enable-threads --enable-g=dbg --with-device=ch3:nemesis --with-pm=hydra --prefix=.

I have found from searching online that mpich-1.2.6 produces libmpich.so.1.0 which I require run a certain program in parallel. I am unable to follow the installation documentation I have found online for this version because when i configure for ch_p4mpd I get an error when I run make. Therefore I just run ./configure and make but this does not produce my required libmpich.so.1.0. What do I need to specify prior to either configure or make in order to build this? I am building on a linux86-64 with pgi/10.2 compiler. -- Andre Pattantyus Graduate Student Research Assistant Department of Meteorology University of Hawaii at Manoa 2525 Correa Rd, HIG 350 Honolulu, HI 96822 Phone: (845) 264-3582 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] To manage subscription options or unsubscribe: https://lists.mpich.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
