[petsc-dev] Strange issue with testsuite

[Stefano Zampini]

I'm currently trying to build PETSc on a NEC-SX. Apart from other issues,
I'm facing the following issue with the testsuite.

[zampins at stork petsc]$ make test s='sys*ex54*1a*' V=1
Using MAKEFLAGS: -- V=1 s=sys*ex54*1a*
arch-debug-uni/tests/sys/tests/runex54_1_options_file-ex54options_1a_wrong.sh
 -v
 ok sys_tests-ex54_1_options_file-ex54options_1a_wrong #
/home/zampins/src/petsc/lib/petsc/bin/petsc-mpiexec.uni  -n 1 ../ex54
-options_left 0 -options_view -options_file ex54options_1a_wrong  2>&1 |
cat > ex54_1_options_file-ex54options_1a_wrong.tmp
not ok diff-sys_tests-ex54_1_options_file-ex54options_1a_wrong # Error
code: 1
# 1a2
# > [0]PETSC ERROR:
/home/zampins/src/petsc/arch-debug-uni/tests/sys/tests/runex54_1_options_file-ex54options_1a_wrong/../ex54
on a arch-debug-uni named stork by zampins Wed May 12 16:45:46 2021

However, if I run the test directly, I think it produces the proper output
to be filtered. How can I debug this?

[zampins at stork tests]$ ./ex54 -options_left 0 -options_view -options_file
ex54options_1a_wrong
