Tests fail after building parallel netcdf with gcc and openmpi

[Greg Schussman]

Hi.

I'm having trouble getting a working version of parallel netcdf using 
gcc and openmpi.   I've tried various combinations of:

   parallel-netcdf-1.1.1
   parallel-netcdf-1.2.0
   gcc 4.5.1
   gcc 4.6.1
   openmpi-1.4.3
   openmpi-1.5

I'm building using this bash script:

     MPICC=mpicc MPICXX=mpicxx ./configure \
     --prefix=$HOME/$NERSC_HOST/Software/parallel-netcdf --disable-fortran

     make clean
     make
     make install

All that completes with no complaints.  Then to test, I run:

     ../parallel-netcdf/bin/ncmpidump test/data/test_double.nc

Which gives:

      0: MPI_File_open : MPI_ERR_OTHER: known error not in list
     ../parallel-netcdf/bin/ncmpidump: test/data/test_double.nc: Can not 
open/create file

I have checked that that ncmpidump really is the one created by my 
build.  I have copied that test_double.nc file to another machine with a 
working ncmpidump, and the file is not corrupt.

I've tried running the tests that come with the sources via:

     cd test/nc_test/
     make testing

Which starts this way:

     ./nc_test -c
      0: MPI_File_open : MPI_ERR_OTHER: known error not in list

Thanks in advance for any help.
