hi,

when my wireless adapter is down on my laptop, only localhost is configured.

In this case, when I mpirun 2 binaries on my laptop, mpirun fails with this error:

It looks like orte_init failed for some reason; your parallel process i

likely to abort.  There are many reasons that a parallel process can

fail during orte_init; some of which are due to configuration or

environment problems.  This failure appears to be an internal failure;

here's some additional information (which may only be relevant to an

Open MPI developer):

  orte_rml_base_select failed

  --> Returned value Error (-1) instead of ORTE_SUCCESS

when I turn on the wireless adapter back on, the mpirun works fine

Is there a way to make mpirun realize all my binaries run on the same box, and therefore don't need any other interface but localhost?

PS: this is ipconfig when the wireless adapter is off

>ipconfig /all
