It is usually a coding or typo mistake. At first, Ensure that array sizes and dimension are correct. I experience that if openmpi is compiled with gnu compilers (not with Intel) then it also point outs the subroutine exactly in which the fault occur. have a try. best, AA On Wed, Jun 30, 2010 at 12:43 PM, David Zhang <solarbik...@gmail.com> wrote: When I got segmentation faults, it has always been my coding mistakes. Perhaps your code is not robust against number of processes not divisible by 2?
