[petsc-users] configure cannot find a c preprocessor

[Santiago Andres Triana]

thanks Satish,

did not work unfortunately, configure.log attached. Here's the output:

hpca-login:~/petsc-3.8.3> ./configure --with-cc=gcc --with-fc=gfortran
--with-cxx=g++ --with-mpi-include=/opt/sgi/mpt/mpt-2.12/include
--with-mpi-lib="-L/opt/sgi/mpt/mpt-2.12/lib -lmpi -lpthread
/usr/lib64/libcpuset.so.1 /usr/lib64/libbitmask.so.1"
===============================================================================
             Configuring PETSc to compile on your system

===============================================================================
TESTING: check from
config.libraries(config/BuildSystem/config/libraries.py:158)

*******************************************************************************
         UNABLE to CONFIGURE with GIVEN OPTIONS    (see configure.log for
details):
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--with-mpi-lib=['-L/opt/sgi/mpt/mpt-2.12/lib', '-lmpi', '-lpthread',
'/usr/lib64/libcpuset.so.1', '/usr/lib64/libbitmask.so.1'] and
--with-mpi-include=['/opt/sgi/mpt/mpt-2.12/include'] did not work
