[mpich-discuss] configuration problem

[Steenhauer, Kate]

Initially, I tried to run my code with mpich2. The following happens.

We have 1 workstation with 8 processors, the following software: Linux Centos, Fortran Intel 11.1.

Mpich2, Intel Fortran and Linux is not working on our pc. It does not like the mpif.inc file, it immediately gets into problems at the initialisation of the MPI (subroutine MPI_INI).
mpirun -np 8 RUN02
> Fatal error in MPI_Comm_size: Invalid communicator, error stack:
> MPI_Comm_size(111): MPI_Comm_size(comm=0x5b, size=0x7fffce629784)
> failed
> MPI_Comm_size(69).: Invalid communicator MPISTART
> rank 7 in job 2  cops-021026_40378   caused collective abort of all ranks
>  exit status of rank 7: killed by signal 9

Then when I change the mpif.inc file (see attachment) and direct it to the mpif.h file that came with the mpich2 library, it gets passed this problem but then runs into a next problem further down the line at MPI_SCATTER, where it is trying to distribute data to the different processors. The error message is 'memcpy argument memory ranges overlap, dst_=0xafd74f8 src_=0xafd750c len_=16200, internal ABORT'.

There is something in the parametresiation within the mpi that is possibly different then when the code is successfully run on another cluster (this cluster uses Redhat, various mpich versions, e.g. mpich-1.2.5..12, and various versions of Intel FORTRAN compiler (ifort), e.g. 7, 9 and 12).

I have attached the mpif.inc file.

Please let me know if you have any ideas?

Thanks

Kate

Is there any reason you can't use mpich2 ?  The latest stable
release of mpich2 is 1.2.1p1.

mpich-1 is no longer officially supported.  Latest fortran compilers
are much better supported in mpich2.
