[MPICH] stdin problem with MPICH2-1.0.5p4

[Rajeev Thakur]

If you are running your program in the background as "mpiexec -n 4 a.out &",
then you need to do
"mpiexec -n 4 a.out < /dev/null &" instead.

Hello,
 
I am using MPICH2-1.0.5p4, and one of my programs produces the following
error:
 
lsmpiexec_master (handle_stdin_input 1064): stdin problem; if pgm is run in 
background, redirect from /dev/null
mpiexec_master (handle_stdin_input 1065):     e.g.: mpiexec -n 4 a.out < 
/dev/null &

My program does not take any input form stdin.  Could anybody tell me what
this error means?
