[petsc-users] PETSC ERROR: Logging has not been enabled

[Barry Smith]

   Most likely the tool you are using to launch the parallel program is wrong for the MPI you have linked PETSc with. Are you starting the program with mpiexec ? Is that mpiexec the one that goes with the MPI (mpicc or mpif90) that you built PETSc with? 

   What happens if you compile a trivial MPI only code with the mpicc and then try to run it in parallel with the mpiexec?
