ABINIT Discussion Forums

Hi, everyone
I find a error that occurs occasionally and I wonder why it occurs. "cannot run Fortran compiled programs."
Enclosing with the error on screen and the conf.log in fallbacks/source/FoX-4.1.2

Hi

Probably because you enabled MPI without specifying the --with-mpi-prefix=/path/to/your/mpi/installation

Cheers

This error occurs because the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable does not include the location of MPI libraries.

You can solve it either using --with-mpi-prefix, as suggested by Jordan, or through:
