Hello, We have recently added a 64-bit 2 x Dual-Core Athlon server running Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 3 to allow for processing of large data sets (>4GB) in R. To integrate this server into our Linux cluster, I have been trying (unsuccessfully) to use Rmpi/lam-mpi to parallel process some of our scripts. While I have successfully compiled R 2.4.0 and lam-mpi 7.1.2 on this server using a 64-bit architecture, I have not been able to install Rmpi to interface with lam-mpi, despite success on nearly identical servers in a 32-bit architecture. When trying on the 64-bit server, I receive the error "cannot find -lmpi" during compilation (see below).
If anyone has had success in this regards and notice an installation problem that I may have overlooked, I would greatly appreciate any advice. Note that because I do not have root access, all of the lam-mpi and R files were installed locally. Thanks in advance, Robert ### Below is configuration scripts for R, Lam-MPI and Rmpi: setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH "-L$prefix/lib -L$prefix/lib64" setenv prefix "/home/a347549/local64" ### R 2.4.0 Configure ./configure --prefix=$prefix --with-x --with-tcl-config="$prefix/lib/tclConfig.sh" --with-tk-config="$prefix/lib/tkConfig.sh" --with-blas="-L$builddir/ATLAS/lib/Linux_HAMMER64SSE2_4 -lptf77blas -lpthread -latlas" ### Lam-MPI 7.1.2 Configure: ./configure --prefix=$prefix --enable-shared --disable-static --without-romio --with-rsh="ssh -xq" ### Rmpi INSTALL R CMD INSTALL Rmpi --configure-args="--with-mpi=$prefix --prefix=$prefix CC=mpicc" -l $R_LIBS * Installing *source* package 'Rmpi' ...
