[mpich-discuss] Ask questions with MPI's installation

[Nicolas Rosner]

Sounds like your shell is confused about what exactly you want to
redirect where. This can happen if, for instance, you try to use bash
redirection syntax while running csh/tcsh, or viceversa, or when there
are too many or too few elements on the command line. Here's an
example that triggers a similar message on my system:

$ myfile="one two"
$ echo Hello >$myfile
-bash: $myfile: ambiguous redirect

If this information doesn't help, please copy-paste the full error
message text and include some further details about your system
(platform, OS, shell type if applicable, etc).

Good luck
N.
