Hello, The OMPI is trying to launch 192.168.160.1, which is not in my ifconfig. The contents of ifconfig and /etc/hosts are attached. What should I do now? To Jody: The gethostname() is actually called by OMPI routine. I just tested it to see whether any error is there. Now it seems that the host name is correctly set to my computer name. Thank you for your answer.
