<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB">Hello, </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b style><span style lang="EN-GB"> </span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b style><span style lang="EN-GB"> </span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB">First of
all, please forgive me if this problem was 1000 times discussed and solved. But
I am really a beginner with MPI (and also all that concerns UNIX), so I can’t
even name precisely my problem and I am afraid of doing something that will break
all.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB">(Please
also forgive my mistakes in English; any correction is welcome! </span><span style="font-family:Wingdings" lang="EN-GB"><span style>:D</span></span><span style lang="EN-GB"> )</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB">So…</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB">I try to
install MPICH2(-1.4.1.p1) on my laptop ( XP SP3 and Cygwin).</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB">I work with
an external HDD (for lack of “space” for this “old” laptop), and the whole path
of Cygwin is: <i style>I:\ps\cygwin\</i></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB">To have a “Unix”
terminal, I use XWinServer.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB">During the
installation of MPICH2, I followed this guide:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i style><span style lang="EN-GB"><a href="http://www.mcs.anl.gov/research/projects/mpich2/documentation/files/mpich2-1.4.1-installguide.pdf">http://www.mcs.anl.gov/research/projects/mpich2/documentation/files/mpich2-1.4.1-installguide.pdf</a></span></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB">And, especially:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b style><span style lang="EN-GB">1)<span style> </span></span></b><span style lang="EN-GB">-> unpack mpich2-1.4.1p1.tar.gz

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB"><span style> </span>(<b style>not </b>/home/<i style>eyka</i>/<b style>librairies</b>, as written in the guide,
because this folder doesn’t exist.^^ But the errors don’t come from here, do
they?!)</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB"><span style> </span>-> and <b style>rename</b> the folder to mpich2-1.4.1p1</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i style><span style lang="EN-GB">(2)-3)-4)-> nothing to say)</span></i></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b style><span style lang="EN-GB">5)<span style> </span></span></b><span style lang="EN-GB">-> cd /tmp/<i style>eyka</i>/mpich2-1.4.1</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB">And I did not
notice the errors, so…</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b style><span style lang="EN-GB">7)-8) </span></b><span style lang="EN-GB">I install MPICH2 and add directory to the path.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b style><span style lang="EN-GB">9) </span></b><span style lang="EN-GB">So mpiexec and mpicc are unknown</span></p>

it seems that a mpiexec is already installed in an other application:</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB">A last
question; how can we uninstall MPICH2 ? A “make uninstall” will work? </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style lang="EN-GB"> </span></p>
