Hi, I used : mpirun -np 200 -rf --output-filename /mypath/myapplication But, no files are printed out. Can "--debug" option help me hear ? When I tried : -bash-3.2$ mpirun -debug--------------------------------------------------------------------------A suitable debugger could not be found in your PATH. Check the valuesspecified in the orte_base_user_debugger MCA parameter for the list ofdebuggers that was searched.--------------------------------------------------------------------------Any help is really appreciated. thanks

Give it: mpirun --output-filename /myhome/debug/run01 and in /myhome/debug, you will find files: run01.0run01.1... each with the output from the indicated rank.

The cluster also print out possible error messages into one file. But, sometimes the error file is empty , sometimes it is signal 9. If I only run dummy tasks on worker nodes, no errors. If I run real task, sometimes processes are terminated w/o any errors before the program normally exit.Sometimes, the program get signal 9 but no other error messages. It is weird. Any help is really appreciated.

Alternatively, since you can put print statements into your code, have you considered using mpirun's option to direct output from each rank into its own file? Look at "mpirun -h" for the options. -output-filename|--output-filename <arg0> Redirect output from application processes into filename.rank On Mar 26, 2011, at 2:48 PM, Jack Bryan wrote:Is it possible to enable padb to print out the stack trace and other program execute information into a file ? I can run the program in gdb as this: mpirun -np 200 -e gdb ./myapplication How to make gdb print out the debug information to a file ? So that I can check it when the program is terminated. thanks Jack From: r...@open-mpi.org List-Post: users@lists.open-mpi.org Date: Sat, 26 Mar 2011 13:56:13 -0600 To: us...@open-mpi.org Subject: Re: [OMPI users] OMPI error terminate w/o reasons You don't need to install anything on a system folder - you can just install it in your home directory, assuming that is accessible on the remote nodes. As for the script - unless you can somehow modify it to allow you to run under a debugger, I am afraid you are completely out of luck.

They may not stop at the same point when the program got signal 9. So, even though I can figure out the print out statements from all200 processes, so many different locations where the processesare stopped make it harder to find out some hints about the bug. Are there some other programming tricks, which can help me narrow down to the doubt points ASAP.Any help is appreciated.

But, the program is terminated with --------------------------------------------------------------------------mpirun noticed that process rank 0 with PID 77967 on node n342 exited on signal 9 (Killed).-------------------------------------------------------------------------- After searching, the signal 9 means: the process is currently in an unworkable state and should be terminated with extreme prejudice If a process does not respond to any other termination signals, sending it a SIGKILL signal will almost always cause it to go away. The system will generate SIGKILL for a process itself under some unusual conditions where the program cannot possibly continue to run (even to run a signal handler). But, the error message does not indicate any possible reasons for the termination. There is a FOR loop in the main() program, if the loop number is small (< 200), the program works well, but if it becomes lager and larger, the program will got SIGKILL. The cluster where I am running the MPI program does not allow running debug tools. If I run it on a workstation, it will take a very very long time (for > 200 loops) in order to get the error occur again. What can I do to find the possible bugs ?
