Re: [mpich-discuss] install + config on windows

11 Jun 2013

      Hi Benoit,

As our support for Windows platforms has been discontinued, we cannot 
guarantee MPICH is going to be able to be compiled in newer versions of the 
Windows compilers and/or the operating system itself. Unless Jayesh has any 
comments on this regard, I'm not aware of any experience of MPICH + Windows 7.

I apologize for the inconvenience.

Thanks,
  Antonio

Hello,
actually, it seems that Mpich must be compiled to work. The point is that
the "Readme" file gives an explanation to compile the programs with Visual
studio 2003. Anyway this last software is very difficult to make work on
windows 7.
Is there finally a way to compile Mpich on windows 7 with Visual Studio ?
best regards,
Benoit Véler

Hi,
From the log output it looks like credentials (password) for
Utilisateur was not correct.
Is Utilisateur a valid Windows user on your machine? Have you
registered the username/password correctly (Try re-registering the
username+password by typing "mpiexec -register" at the command prompt)?
Regards,
Jayesh

Hi,
Looks like you missed the "-" before the status ("smpd -status" not
"smpd status") argument.
It also looks like you have multiple MPI libraries installed in your
system. Try running this command (full path to mpiexec and smpd),
# C:\Progra~1\MPICH2\bin\smpd -status
# C:\Progra~1\MPICH2\bin\mpiexec -verbose -n 2
C:\Progra~1\MPICH2\examples\cpi.exe
Regards,
Jayesh

Hi,
Ok. Please send us the output of the following commands,
# smpd -status
# mpiexec -verbose -n 2 C:\Progra~1\MPICH2\examples\cpi.exe
Please copy-paste the command and the complete output in your email.

Hello
...
(PS: I am assuming from your reply in the previous email that you can
run a command like "mpiexec -n 2 C:\Progra~1\MPICH2\examples\cpi.exe"
correctly)
In fact this command doesn't run.
The message is this one
[01:11728]....ERROR:unable to read the cmd header on the pmi context,

Hello,

Hi,
Are you able to run any other MPI programs? Try running the example
program, cpi.exe (C:\Program Files\MPICH2\examples\cpi.exe), to make
sure that your MPICH2 installation works.
yes it does work
...
Installing MPICH2 on Windows 7 typically requires you to uninstall
any
previous versions of MPICH2, launch an administrative command promt
and
run "msiexec /i mpich2-installer.msi" to install MPICH2.
yes it 's been installed like this...
In wmpiconfig, the message is the following in the 'Get settings'
line.
Credentials for Utilisateur rejected connecting to host
  Aborting: Unable to connect to host
The software I try to use is Taudem, which is intergrated inside
Qgis.
Launching a taudem process inside Qgis gives the same message.
...

Jayesh

Hello,
in my case Mpich is normally used to run .exe programs. I guess 
that
they
are already compiled...
The .exe files are integrated into a software, and accessed from
menus
inside it. When I run one of the programs, the answer is actually
"unable
to query host".
At the end, the process is not realised. It seems that this 
'host'
question is a problem to the software...
Sincerely,
Ben.

Hi,
You can download MPICH2 binaries for Windows at
http://www.mpich.org/downloads/ .
You need to compile your MPI programs with MPICH2 to make it work.
I
would recommend recompiling your code after you install MPICH2 (If
you
have MPI program binaries pre-built with MPICH2 - instead of
compiling
them on your own - make sure that you install the same version of
MPICH2
that was used to build the binaries).
The wmpiregister program has a bug and you can ignore this error
message ("...unable to query host"). Can you run your MPI program
using
mpiexec from a command prompt?
Regards,
Jayesh

Subject: [mpich-discuss] install + config on windows
Hello,
I'm not very good at computing, but I would like to install Mpich2
on
windows 7 - 64 bits. There is only one pc, with one user plus the
admin,
and a simple core processor.
I would like to know if it's mandatory to have compiling softwares
with
it to make it work, whereas it is asked in this case only to make
run
another software, and not for compiling (that would maybe save some
disk
space and simplify the installation) ?
My second issue is that I must be missing something about the
server
configuration. I have installed Mpich from the .msi file, then
configured
the wmpiregister program with the Domain/user informations.
There is this message displayed when trying to connect in the
'configurable settings' window : 'MPICH2 not installed or unable to
query
the host'.
What is the host actually ?
I know I am starting from very far, I am sorry for these very
simple
questions. Thanks if you can reply me, that would certainly save me
some
long hours of reading and testing ;)
sincerely,
Ben
