ABINIT Discussion Forums

Hi,
Dear users and developers, could anyone please help me to install abinit?
I am just finish installing the MPI enabled version of Abinit 7.6.1 and got some problems in make.(I compiled sequential version and it worked well)
I used all this commands for configuration. Configure worked.
FC=mpif90,CC=mpicc,CXX=mpic++.
./configure --enable-mpi=yes --enable-mpi-io=yes --with-mpi-prefix=/wsu/arch/x86_64/openmpi/openmpi-1.4.3-pg

When I used make, the error appeared like this:

../../src/67_common/lib67_common.a(dfpt_write_cg.o): In function

Best regards.

PGI compilers have serious bugs that are triggered by Abinit, both at compile-time and at run-time, preventing its use in production. This is why we do not support them. The best is probably that you switch to another compiler vendor.

If you still want to build Abinit with PGI compilers, I suggest you to try again in a few weeks when we release Abinit 7.8, which benefits from an extensive refactoring that may trigger a lower amount of PGI bugs.

I tried with the openmpi-gcc 1.4.3 instead of openmpi-pgi 1.4.3. Unfortunately, The error seems still exist.
Here is the make error.

There is no buildable file here

Thanks for helping.

Hi,

compilers that are not / no longer supported are

ifort <= 11.x
gcc <= 4.4
pgi >= 8
pathscale >=5
open64

in your config.log, we see

configure:3745: gcc --version >&5
gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-54)

it's why, there is a error with

" error: bad value (native) for -march= switch"

the best choices for compilers are : gcc4.8 or 4.9 , ifort >= 13.0.3

FYI: RedHat 4 is an antiquity. Version 7 has been published recently, hence you might consider to upgrade your system to at least version 6, in order to experience much higher performance.
