Hi Paolo thanks for your response. What do you mean exactly by "run interactively"?
at first I tried running from the command line with mpi commands and then we moved to putting the info inside the PARA_PREFIX and PARA_PREFIX inside the actual script called "check-pw.x.j". to run this i have been doing "./check_pw.x.j" ,which is running interactively but only prints "Checking atom..." then sits there for long time, the machines working at 100% without doing anything. I tried to add "-inp file" to PARA_PREFIX I just get "unrecognized argument inp" then fail, when I add it to PARA_POSTFIX I don't get error but get the same results as previously with the hung output. (I have not required input file before? just trying to get a test working with the least amount of complexity possible). PARA_PREFIX="mpiexec -n 60 -f /home/user/mpiMachinefile.txt -wdir /usr/local/espresso-4.2.1/tests" PARA_POSTFIX="./check-pw.x.j -inp file" regards, Nick > -----Original Message----- > From: giannozz at democritos.it > Sent: Fri, 10 Dec 2010 08:20:45 +0100 > To: pw_forum at pwscf.org > Subject: Re: [Pw_forum] QE and mpich2, Linux > > Run interactively and look what happens.
