I managed to run it just recently... It turns out that some

this by trying to install an old version of openmpi that was in the

the missing libraries for the old openmpi. After installing these
libraries, the already installed new openmpi (downloaded from open-
mpi.org) works. Maybe it is a good idea to spell this out on open-
mpi web site. People would just install the openmpi without knowing
that there might be some missing libraries...
The problems you described:
/programs/my_mpi_program: symbol lookup error: /programs/openmpi/lib/
libmpi_cxx.so.0: undefined symbol: ompi_registered_datareps
Should not have been caused by missing libib* libraries. The missing
symbol that that error message talks about is a symbol in libmpi
itself. It sounds more like you somehow had mis-matched versions of
Open MPI installed / being used, perchance...?
