[mpich-discuss] [mpich2-dev] I can not make MPI recognizes a dual core

Wed May 26 11:34:36 CDT 2010

Hi, Very thanks for your response. MPI is an admin user. I intall
MPICH for only an user because a teacher give me this tip.
When mpiexec prompts for the username I press the enter key, and then
I write the password.
The system response to me:
job aborted:
rank: node: exit code [: error message]
0: User-PC: -1073740777: process 0 exited without calling finalize
1: User-PC: 123
I do not have in my team who has installed/used MPICH2, I sorry.
I will thanks any help.

> Hi,
>  Is the new user, MPI, an admin user ? How did you install MPICH2 for only that user ? I am still surprised that you have to install smpd explicitly (that the installer does not install it for you).
>  MPICH2 runtime system requires user credentials to launch an MPI job. Looks like you are logged on as "User-PC\MPI". Try entering the password (for user "User-PC\MPI") without entering the username (When mpiexec prompts for the username just press the enter key).
>  I would also recommend getting help from your sysadmin regarding installation of MPICH2 (Or better anyone else in your team who has installed/used MPICH2).
