[petsc-users] Unable to configure errors

[Satish Balay]

Please check: "Intel MPI" section of https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://petsc.org/release/install/install/*mpi__;Iw!!G_uCfscf7eWS!efneLerzMMPsXXWgEwlvn6Pdk_8YCIiz8n_VrMaeIB4E4gWzmx9BZKrY5NGR48MVdQ60BU43oXs8ZhXN5BIN9zu690s$   - Likely you need to correctly set I_MPI_CC etc. for the MPI compiler wrappers to work.

If you still have issues -  send configure.log from this failure.
