Abinit Insstalation Help for IBM HPC

Post by Redmaz » Wed Jul 08, 2015 10:22 pm

Hi,
I have IBM HPC Cluster with RedHAt 6.4 OS and IBM PMPI platform.
I wont to install Abinit 7.10.4 on it.
I try :
$module load PMPI
$./configure
but I have this erreur:

checking for mpicc... /opt/ibm/platform_mpi/bin/mpicc
checking for gcc... mpicc
checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out
checking whether the C compiler works... configure: error: in `/home/abinit-7.10.4/build':
configure: error: cannot run C compiled programs.
If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.
See `config.log' for more details.

pleaz can you help me !!

Hello

First, it seems that you use GCC 4.4 which is no more supported. Please consider to upgrade to a more recent compiler like GCC4.8 or GCC4.9. Check your modules to find out what is available (module avail)
Second, consider to configure with

Code: Select all

./configure --enable-mpi --with-mpi-prefix=/opt/ibm/platform_mpi/

The error comes from a MPI library that is not found during compilation
./a.out: error while loading shared libraries: libmpio.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Please send your configuration file (how you run ./configure) and the log file of abinit.

Your configuration apparently did not link properly to the MPI version (or the MPI version itself is not correctly compiled).
