Ok. That did help a bit. I now see that the /opt/ompi/gnu/1.4.4/lib/openmpi/ directory has .so files as well as the .la files. Unfortunately I still get the same error when I run i.e it complains about missing  files in that directory even though those files are present with an .so or .la extension (but not without):
mca_parfinity_linux, mca_carto_auto_detect, mca_carto_file, mca_ess_env, mca_ess_hnp, mca_ess_singleton, mca_ess_slurm, mca_ess_tool

Can anyone help with what these files are and how I can get my compile to generate them (without extensions)?


Thanks,

Sam

Hi Ralph,

 I may have been a little promiscous in my use of build flags. My initial configure line was much simpler then I kept throwing in flags when it wouldn't run. I'll try to build it again with the your config line and see if that resolves the issue.

I don't understand your configure line - why did you give an argument to enable-shared?? That option doesn't take an argument, and may be causing the confusion. Also, enable-debug by default turns off optimization as otherwise the optimizer removes all debug symbols.

If you want a debug version, try just this:

./configure --prefix=/opt/ompi/gnu/1.4.4 --enable-debug --with-valgrind=/opt/valgrind --enable-orterun-prefix-by-default --enable-memchecker --enable-mem-profile

You don't need --with-devel-headers unless you intend to write code that directly drives the OMPI internals.

Hi Gustavo,

 I do have /opt/ompi/gnu/1.4.4/lib in my LD_LIBRARY_PATH and the bin directory in my path as well but that didn't seem to help.

Hi John Doe

What you need to add to LD_LIBRARY_PATH is /opt/ompi/gnu/1.4.4/lib
[note 'lib' at the end].
Your email seems to say that you added /opt/ompi/gnu/1.4.4/lib/openmpi
instead, if I understood it right.
And to your PATH you need to add the corresponding 'bin' directory:
/opt/ompi/gnu/1.4.4/bin.
The rule here is your installation prefix /opt/ompi/gnu/1.4.4/
with 'lib' or 'bin' at the end.

I hope this helps,

Also while those files e.g mca_ess_tool are not found, the static versions e.g mca_ess_tool.a and mca_ess_tool.la exist in the /opt/ompi/gnu/1.4.4/lib/openmpi directory. I've also tried adding that directory to my LD_LIBRARY_PATH but still get the same error. Help would be much appreciated.
