I am trying to understand what parameters are essential to include when running ./configure with openmpi-1.3.3 when working with Mac using PPC (OS 10.4) or Intel platform (OS 10.5). What compilers and settings work best for the individual platforms (HFS+) and lead to robust installations?

Fact is that I can build openmpi rather easily using ./configure -- prefix=path_to_location on any of the mentioned platforms. Test on the package-provided examples work without flaw. However, building mpiblast-1.6 using openmpi fails on either platform (clean, no mpi alternatives present). Error messages indicate that certain functions provided within openmpi are not defined e.g., MPI::Datatype::Free() and MPI::WIN::Free().


Sorry for the delay on replying here.

Make sure that you are using the Open MPI that you have installed from source and not the Open MPI that is installed by OS X by default.

Does that help?
