Hello We are trying to run maker(http://www.yandell-lab.org/software/maker.html) in combination with OpenMPI
But when we are trying to submit a job with the maker and openmpi, We see the following error in the log file: --Next Contig-- #--------------------------------------------------------------------- Another instance of maker is processing this contig!! SeqID: chrA10 Length: 17398227 #--------------------------------------------------------------------- According to http://gmod.827538.n3.nabble.com/Does-maker-support-muti-processing-for-a-single-long-fasta-sequence-using-openMPI-td4061342.html We have to run the following command mpiexec -mca btl ^openib -n 40 maker -help "If you get a single help message then everything is fine. If you get 40 help messages, then MPI is not communicating correctly." We are using the following command to demonstrate what is going wrong: mpiexec -mca btl ^openib -N 5 gcc --version gcc (GCC) 10.2.0 Copyright (C) 2020 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

So we are getting the message 5 times, which means OpenMPI is not correctly installed on our cluster? We are using EasyBuild to build/install our OpenMPI module. ( with the default OpenMPI easyblock module) Best regards / met vriendelijke groeten Thomas Eylenbosch DevOps Engineer (OnSite), Gluo N.V.
