[SOLVED] Abint 6.10.3 fails tests on Ubuntu 11.10 server

Post by serzz » Wed Dec 28, 2011 5:25 pm

I have installed Abint 6.10.3 on Ubuntu 11.10 server (2 intel xeon 6-core processors) with OpenMPI in accordance with recomendations http://forum.abinit.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1391 and some modification http://forum.abinit.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1477
no error messager were generated. But

Code: Select all

make testin_1
produce the following output

Code: Select all

echo "Running built-in test in_1"
Running built-in test in_1
cd tests ; /usr/bin/perl .././tests/Scripts/run-basic-tests.pl built-in in_1 /home/serzz/abinit/abinit-6.10.3
*** The MPI_Comm_f2c() function was called before MPI_INIT was invoked.
*** This is disallowed by the MPI standard.
*** Your MPI job will now abort.
[team194:25699] Abort before MPI_INIT completed successfully; not able to guarantee that all other processes were killed!


I also tried to reinstall and recompile with mpich software (OpenMPI was completely removed from the system), but I again the output is

Code: Select all

Running built-in test in_1
cd tests ; /usr/bin/perl .././tests/Scripts/run-basic-tests.pl built-in in_1 /home/serzz/abinit/abinit-6.10.3
Attempting to use an MPI routine before initializing MPICH


could anybody say what may be wrong?

Hi Sergei,

I'm not a specialist of ubuntu but the 6.10.3 is working with recipe for ubuntu 10.04

can you tell me which version of openmpi was installed under 10.10 ?

under 10.04 , it's 1.4.1 : we don't support yet 1.5
same for mpich : don't use mpich > 1.3.x : there is a bug in version 1.4.x corrected in 1.5.x ( but not yet released under a stable version...)

regards

jmb

Thank you, mpich is 1.4.1 indeed. As for openMPI, it was 1.4.3. I will try earlier versions.
