Hi All, As a complete beginner (to OpenMPI) I am attempting to build on a Linux opteron infiniband platform using SunStudio compilers.
My build script looks like... #!/bin/sh ../configure x86_64 \ CC=cc CXX=CC F77=f77 FC=f90 \ CFLAGS=-m64 CXXFLAGS=-m64 FFLAGS=-m64 FCFLAGS=-m64 \ --enable-static \ --enable-orterun-prefix-by-default \ --enable-mpi-f90 \ --enable-mpi-threads \ --with-psm Not sure why I need to put x86_64 as the first argument, just a lucky guess after... configure: error: cannot guess build type; you must specify one ...but I hit another problem... --- MCA component allocator:basic (no configuration) checking for MCA component allocator:basic compile mode... static checking if MCA component allocator:basic can compile... yes --- MCA component allocator:bucket (no configuration) checking for MCA component allocator:bucket compile mode... static checking if MCA component allocator:bucket can compile... yes ../configure: line 123247: syntax error near unexpected token `(' ../configure: line 123247: ` { $as_echo "$as_me:$LINENO: WARNING: This component was selected as the default (direct call)" >&5' Have no idea of why I should need an MCA bucket but it seems to trigger a problem. If I hack out the parentheses I end up hitting more parenthetic syntax errors.
