[mpich-discuss] Solaris 10 mpich2 dup2 error

[Christopher Jackson]

I will be running mph programs on multiple machines. I was simply using the aforementioned command to illustrate the problem I was having. I get the same error when running on multiple machines. But thank you for the response. Solaris is not my first choice for an OS but unfortunately it is what is installed in the CS lab on our campus. I hope to hear more suggestions on possible fixes.

Regards,
Christopher Jackson
