Hi,
Please copy-paste the command and the response (the complete message) in your email.
Are you able to validate the registered username/password (Type "mpiexec -validate" and it should return "SUCCESS")?
Regards,
Jayesh

Ok. I have checked and yes smpd is running and I have given a sufficient username and password so that mpiexec will run. Now I am getting a new error when executing mpiexec -n 2 hostname where it is giving me this response:
error closing the left context socket: Error = -1

Hi,
1. Make sure that the process manager, smpd, is running in your system (Look in the task manager/Process Explorer to see if there is a service named smpd running. Alternately you can run "smpd -status" to check if smpd is running)
2. Run a simple non-MPI program like hostname from the command prompt using mpiexec (Type "mpiexec -n 2 hostname" ). When prompted for username/password give a valid Windows username/password.
If mpiexec gives you an error, type "mpiexec -remove" to remove the existing registered username/password and then type "mpiexec -register" to register a new/valid Windows username/password. Re-run mpiexec.
3. Run the sample MPI program, cpi.exe, provided with MPICH2 (mpiexec -n 2 C:\Progra~1\MPICH2\examples\cpi.exe)

This is a known bug. Due to limited developer bandwidth we haven't been able to address this issue yet.

Alright. I have reinstalled MPICH2 using the method in section 9.4. However, I am not able to connect to the host it seems. I keep receiving this message when trying to execute a program:
Credentials for Mike rejected connecting to Mike-PC
Aborting: Unable to connect to Mike-PC
Also, I am getting an error when I look at the MPICH2 configurable settings that says that MPICH2 is not installed or that it cannot query the host.

Hi,
Looks like MPICH2 was not installed correctly in your system.
Uninstall your existing version of MPICH2. Please follow the steps in Section 9.4 (Not 9.1 - http://www.mcs.anl.gov/research/projects/mpich2/documentation/files/mpich2-1.4.1-installguide.pdf ) of the installer's guide to install MPICH2.
(PS: I am assuming that you have Win7/Srv2008/...)

Yeah it must have been that I got the installation mixed up. I downloaded the windows installer and it finally compiled. So progess has been made as now I am getting this error when trying to run hello.exe:
Error while connecting to host, No connection could be made because the target m
achine actively refused it. (10061)
Connect on sock (host=localhost, port=8676) failed, exhaused all end points
Unable to connect to 'localhost:8676',
sock error: Error = -1

Hi,
There are two ways you can use MPICH2 on Windows+cygwin,
# Download MPICH2 source compile/install it on Cygwin. Use mpicc to compile and use mpiexec (from this installation - NOT the one available with Windows installer) to run your program.
# Download MPICH2 Windows installer, install MPICH2 (using installer gui). Use the cygwin/gcc libs provided with the Windows installation to compile your code. Use mpiexec from the Windows installation to run your job.
Looks like you are mixing the approaches.

I was using mpicc in order to compile it. Unfortunately I am still not able to compile the code even with the command you gave me. I used:
gcc -l/mpich_install/include -L/mpich_install/lib hello.c -lmpi
I still received the same error. Did I install it incorrectly maybe?

Hi,
How were you compiling your code before ?
A command similar to,
"gcc -I/cygdrive/c/Progra~1/MPICH2/include -L/cygdrive/c/Progra~1/MPICH2/lib hello.c -o hello.exe -lmpi"
should work.

Alright. Well I tried it and for some reason it is not able to see the library.
I used the command:
gcc -g hello.c -L\mpich_install\lib -lmpi
It ended up giving me an error saying:
fatal error: mpi.h: No such file or directory

Hi,
Try using gcc (usual gcc stuff: specify include dirs using "-I", lib dirs using "-L") to compile your code and link it with "-lmpi" .

What would be the correct command to use in cygwin in order to compile the code? Just want to make sure that I actually compiled it correctly.

Hi,
I just tried compiling your code with cygwin gcc (3.4.4) + MPICH2 1.4.1p1 gcc libs and it worked for me (No seg fault, gives the expected output).
Make sure that you are using the correct header files and libraries (MPICH2 libs and headers) when you compile your code.

Jayesh

Ah sorry. I forgot to include the p1 at the end of it. I am using mpich2 1.4.1p1

Did you try the latest stable release (1.4.1p1)?

Hello,
I am new to MPI and I went and installed mpich2 1.4.1 onto a windows system that is being used through cygwin. I have compiled the code that simply prints the process and rank as shown below.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <mpi.h>
int main( int argc, char *argv[]) {
int numprocs, rank, namelen;
char processor_name[MPI_MAX_PROCESSOR_NAME];
MPI_Init(&argc, &argv);
MPI_Comm_size(MPI_COMM_WORLD, &numprocs);
MPI_Comm_rank(MPI_COMM_WORLD, &rank);
MPI_Get_processor_name(processor_name, &namelen);
printf( "Process %d on %s out of %d\n" , rank, processor_name, numprocs);
MPI_Finalize();
}
Nothing too complicated. However, I still receive an error from the command line in cygwin that simply reads segmentation fault: (core dumped). The command I used was:
mpiexec -n 1 a.exe
No matter what executable I try to run, I still receive the same error. Any help regarding this would be greatly appreciated!
