I finally got it working. The problem seemed to be a few things. But the tweaks below (some of which you recommended) seem to work fine:
-changed the "include" path in setup-mpi.py to link to a folder with the files from meep-openmpi: meep.hpp and /meep/mympi.hpp and /meep/vec.hpp. -in the "meep-swig" part of setup-mpi.py, I changed the libraries extension to ['meep_openmpi'] -I ran the script with "mpirun -n 4 python scriptname.py" and it works. I did however notice that the speedup seems to be very small for the time-stepping portion, about 30% increase for 4 vs. 1 core. Thanks for your help with troubleshooting this though.
