Yes, runtests deletes the file! As mentioned below, the runtests scripts states “FILENAME=test”, and then at various stages, runtests executes “rm -f ${FILENAME}*” Cheers, Edric.

The test-suite.log is complaining "test_hintfile" not exist. This is not a temporary file created during testing, but part of the static test files. Something is causing the tests not able to open "/mathworks/devel/sandbox/eellis/3p-mpich-4.2.3/3p/derived/glnxa64/mpich/src/mpi/romio/test/test_hintfile". Any clues?
