Oh this actually does make a lot of sense. The kicker is that Rmpi doesn't
like to use OMPI and really loves to use LAM so I have to use R in batch
mode by running mpirun -np 12 and specify the host file. I have a bad
feeling that this is loading the library 12 times, once for each R

This makes sense. You were falling victim to the fact that R dlopens libmpi as

Have you tried to compile and run a simple MPI program with your
installed Open MPI? If that works then you need to figure out what is
being done by the Makefile when it is "testing if installed package can
be loaded" and try and reproduce the issue manually.
BTW, I normally configure my
Oh how interesting and I hope this helps someone. Following another link, I
had to use:
./configure --prefix /usr --enable-shared --enable-static
when compiling this for Rmpi. Just curious, why isn't --enable-static a
default option?

So I am now back on this full time as I need this to work. OpenMPI 1.4.3 is
deadlocking with Rmpi and I need the latest code. I still get the exact
same problem. I configured it with a --prefix=/usr to get it to install
everything in default directories and added /usr/lib/openmpi to my
ldconfig. I
Hi All,
I am on ubuntu 11.10 and the only package that they have for OpenMPI is
1.4.3 and I noticed the latest was 1.5.5 and I decided to try to use it to
get the Rmpi R package compiled against it. I failed. My R version is 2.15,
the OpenMPI is 1.5.5. I compiled it and installed it but when I
