Hi Mohamad:
Thanks for the reply. Yes, I installed mpich2 on my machine. I tested that mpi 
worked using the c and f90 examples that was provided, and it worked well. I do 
not understand the line:

            call mpi_file_open( ierr ) in -lmpi... ./configure: line 27480: 
${ac_cv_lib_mpi_ ____________include__mpif_h_ ____________integer___ierr 
____________call_mpi_file_open__ierr__+:}: bad substitution
./configure: line 27496: ac_cv_lib_mpi_: command not found

Is it trying to substitute something that it does not find?

Laura
