Please always send the ENTIRE error message, it makes it much easier for us 
to deduce what is going on. 

   Error code 63 is PETSC_ERR_ARG_OUTOFRANGE which presumably is generated in  
MatSetValues_MPIAIJ() which means a row or column index is out of range. But 
since this is called within the MatAssemblyEnd_MPIAIJ() it should never be out 
of range. The most likely cause is data corruption on values passed between 
processes with MPI.  It is possible the error is due to bugs in the MPI 
implementation or due to memory corruption elsewhere. I would first recommend 
running the code with valgrind (and enormously powerful tool) to eliminate the 
chance of memory corruption

   Let us know what happens,

MPI 2.0 vs MPI 3.0 is likely not the issue.
