Thanks for your reply. I took your advice, and I found out that it successfully compiled if I installed the Ubuntu packages "libmeep-mpi-default-dev" and "meep-mpi-default", and then changed the extension in the setup-mpi.py to "_meep_mpi-default" and the libraries var to "meep_mpi-default".
So it successfully compiled, but when I tried to execute an mpi script, it gives me this error: *username@ubuntu:~/python-meep-1.4.2/python-meep/samples$ mpipython ./python_meep_symmetry_straight_wg.py* *Traceback (most recent call last):* * File "./python_meep_symmetry_straight_wg.py", line 7, in <module>* * from meep_mpi import * # make it 'meep_mpi' for MPI-meep and 'meep' for non-MPI meep* * File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/meep_mpi.py", line 26, in <module>* * _meep_mpi = swig_import_helper()* * File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/meep_mpi.py", line 18, in swig_import_helper* * import _meep_mpi* *ImportError: No module named _meep_mpi* So it seems that it still isn't able to link properly despite my changes. It may just be that the ubuntu packages just don't work well with this version of python-meep. If this is the case, where would you recommend I get the packages for meep-mpi and libmeep-mpi, so that I can avoid these problems I'm having? Thanks again. -Jeff On Mon, Nov 5, 2012 at 5:12 AM, Nizamov Shawkat <[email protected]>wrote: > Hello, > > Sorry for the delay with maillist - the policy of Launchpad changed it > to be a moderated list a year or so ago. > > The errors which you are facing are most probably caused by the meep > build.
