Ronald, Thank you, this is helpful! I am attaching the configuration file to this email, will you please take a look to see if I am activating the right variables? Also, shall I comment out CPPFLAGS=-DMPICH_IGNORE_CXX_SEEK or not.
Oh, sorry, I meant to give you the MPI directory, not the HDF5 one. And please excuse my ignorance in matters of openmp and openmpi. :) Maria _______________________ Dr. Maria C.

I would remove the comment characters (ie make the variables active again).
