                the way the fortran modules are defined, and the ex11f90
                only uses global vectors. Does it make a difference
                whether global or local vectors are used? Because the

                                                  Hi,<br>
                                                  <br>
                                                  In my case, I fixed
                                                  the u,v,w such that
                                                  their indices are the
                                                  same. I also checked
                                                  using DMDAGetCorners
                                                  and
                                                  DMDAGetGhostCorners.
                                                  Now the problem lies
                                                  in my subroutine
                                                  treating it as a
                                                  “plain old Fortran
                                                  array”.<br>
                                                  <br>
                                                  If I declare them as
                                                  pointers, their
                                                  indices follow the C 0
                                                  start convention, is
                                                  that so?<br>
                                                </blockquote>
                                                    Not really. It is

                                                global vectors and
                                                DMDAGetGhostCorners()
                                                for local vectors.  So
                                                really C or Fortran

                                                      I tried to

                                                      The start_indices
                                                      and end_indices
                                                      are simply to

                                                      of the 1 indices
                                                      of the Fortran
                                                      convention. This
                                                      is necessary in my
                                                      case because most
                                                      of my codes start
                                                      array counting at
                                                      1, hence the
                                                      "trick".<br>
                                                      <br>
                                                      However, now no
                                                      matter which order
                                                      of the
                                                      DMDAVecRestoreArrayF90
                                                      (as in 2 or 3),
                                                      error will occur
                                                      at "call
                                                      DMDAVecRestoreArrayF90(da_v,v_local,v_array,ierr)
                                                      "<br>
                                                      <br>
                                                      So did I violate
                                                      and cause memory
                                                      corruption due to
                                                      the trick above?
                                                      But I can't think
                                                      of any way other
                                                      than the "trick"
                                                      to continue using

                                                          Hi,<br>
                                                          <br>
                                                          My code hangs
                                                          and I added in
                                                          mpi_barrier
                                                          and print to
                                                          catch the bug.
                                                          I found that
                                                          it hangs after
                                                          printing "7".
                                                          Is it because
                                                          I'm doing
                                                          something
                                                          wrong? I need
