Problem with mpi

[Ben Tay]

Hi,

I have some problems with using mpi. My code works with one server but when
I test it on another system, I get the wrong answers. In that system, the
mpi is located at /usr/local/topspin/mpi/mpich/. I tried to specify it with
--with-mpi-dir but it wasn't able to find during config. I then add
--with-mpirun=/usr/local/topspin/mpi/mpich/bin/mpirun_ssh and it
compiled but wrong answers when run. May I know what file does it look for
if --with-mpi-lib is used? My lib64 directory has

libfmpich.a     libfmpich_p.a   libmpich.a        libmpichf90nc_i.a
libmpichf90nc_p.so  libmpichfsup.a     libmpichfsup_p.a   libmpich_i.a
libmpich_p.so  libpmpich++.so
libfmpich_i.a   libfmpich_p.so  libmpichf90_i.a   libmpichf90nc_i.so
libmpichf90_p.a     libmpichfsup_i.a   libmpichfsup_p.so  libmpich_i.so
libmpich.so
libfmpich_i.so  libfmpich.so    libmpichf90_i.so  libmpichf90nc_p.a
libmpichf90_p.so    libmpichfsup_i.so  libmpichfsup.so    libmpich_p.a
libpmpich++.a


I then tried to use --download-mpich=yes but the error msg is
