Sorry for the delay in response, I was out of the office late last week.
Can you tell me what version of Open MPI you are trying to build (1.2 or 1.3
branch)? Are you using the tarball on the Open MPI site or code downloaded
from the svn repository? Can you tell me which distribution and version of
Linux you are on and the version of Sun Studio you are using?
When I build on Linux using Sun Studio I don't put x86_64 in the configure line
so I am not sure why that was necessary and wonder it there still is an issue
here.

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.
Any suggestions gratefully received.
