[mpich-discuss] Fatal error in MPI_Init

[Jayesh Krishna]

Hi,
 
>> create library files from mpich2.dll and fmpich2.dll (distributed with
MPICH2 setup),
  How are you creating lib files from the dlls (In any case you should be
using mpich2mpi.dll instead of mpich2.dll)? 
 
>> compile all my code with the MPICH2 libraries
  Are you compiling your code with the libraries distributed with MPICH2 ?
Or are you using the libs created by you ?
 
>> run my code using "mpiexe -host hostname -n N myapplication"
  Can you run your code on the localhost (Does "mpiexec -n N
myapplication" work ? )?
 
Regards,
Jayesh

Hi Jayesh,

I compile my code with OpenWatcom compiler.
The procedure I use is:


1.	create library files from mpich2.dll and fmpich2.dll (distributed
with MPICH2 setup), 

2.	compile all my code with the MPICH2 libraries 

3.	run my code using "mpiexe -host hostname -n N myapplication"

I had already used procedure successfully before, but I don't know what is
happening now.
I have tried with MPICH2 versions 1.0.8 and the newer one 1.1.1, but the
error is the same.

I also tried to repeat this procedure on a computer without MPI's
installation, but I got the same.

As I told before, I'am able to run CPI and also non-MPI programs.
Any clue that can help me?

Thanks

Hi,
 Did you recompile your code with MPICH2 ? Which version of MPICH2 are you
using ? How are you launching your MPI job (the command used to launch
your job) ? Are you able to run non-MPI programs (Does "mpiexec -n 2
hostname" work ?)?
 
(PS: The error message)
Regards,
Jayesh

Dears sirs,

I got the following message when I tried to run my code under Windows XP:


Fatal error in MPI_Init: Other MPI error, error stack:
MPIR_Init_thread(394): Initialization failed
MPID_Init(90)........: channel initialization failed
MPID_Init(357).......: PMI_Init returned -1

This software can be compiled against Linux (using Intel) and Windows
(using Open Watcom).
Under Linux, it works normally.
Under Windows, I got the message above.
SMPD seems to be ok once the distributed CPI program works normally.
If I link my code with MPICH1-1.2.6 and run with "mpirun", it also works
fine.

The weird thing is that I could already make it work with
MPICH2/Windows/Open Watcom.

Do you have any clue regarding the reason of this error?
What can I be doing wrong?

Thanks in advance,
LC
