[mpich-discuss] MPI_IN_PLACE argument

As the include "mpif.inc" statement is repeated so many times, I copied the mpif.h file from the include mpich2 libraries in the user's location and renamed it as "mpif.inc". This then gets passed the MPI_INitialisation problem.
The compiler is an Intel fortran compiler version 11.1. I did not configure it myself. But I can do this again myself. I imagine the installation procedure was the most straightforward, nothing specifically specified. kate

Your enclosed messenger.mpi8.f90 still contains the invalid MPI header file
include "mpif.inc"
should be
include "mpif.h"
Otherwise the compiler will locate the mpif.inc that you have in your source.
"CPPFLAGS=-DNDEBUG" should be used as part of configure command.
How do you configure mpich2 ? What f90 compiler you are using ?
