Hi Jakob, According to https://easybuild.readthedocs.io/en/latest/version-specific/easyconfig_parameters.html it would seem that setting
maxparallel = 1 Or (or possibly and, I have not tested this) parallel = 1 In the EasyConfig should do the trick. -- Terje Kvernes On 2 Feb 2020, at 20:03, Jakob Schiøtz <[email protected]> wrote: Dear all, I am trying to compile ELPA with the 2019b toolchains. I made a new easyconfig file based on the old one, and that works fine for the intel/2019b toolchain. But for the foss/2019b toolchain it fails with a compilation error. It is a .mod file missing, and since .mod files apparently are some kind of output files from the Fortran compiler, I suspected a problem with the parallel build (EasyBuild uses "make -j 48" on a 24-core machine with hyperthreading). Indeed, compiling with --parallel=1 solves the problem. How do I make this the default behaviour in the EasyConfig? Obviously, the correct solution would be to fix the upstream Autotools-generated Makefile, but that is beyond me. /Jakob -- Jakob Schiøtz, professor, Ph.D. Department of Physics Technical University of Denmark DK-2800 Kongens Lyngby, Denmark http://www.fysik.dtu.dk/~schiotz/
