That's odd -- I've never seen this kind of problem happen on a locally-mounted filesystem.
Just to make sure: you're *not* running autogen.pl, right? You're just basically doing this: ----- $ tar xf openmpi-2.0.0.tar.bz2 $ cd openmpi-2.0.0 $ ./configure ... $ make ... ----- Right? > On Sep 1, 2016, at 12:51 PM, Sean Ahern <s...@ensight.com> wrote: > > Greetings, Jeff. > > Sure, I could see that.
