I am trying to compile. Any suggestions should be helpful.

Configure line

./configure --prefix=/shared/ben/openmpi-1.3 CC=pgcc CXX=pgCC FC=pgf77 F90=pgf90

Error:

This configure “works” in that configure completes sucessfully.

./configure CC=pgcc CXX=pgCC F77=pgf77 F90=pgf90 -prefix=/shared/ben/openmpi-1.3

I then run make and get:

Hi bmayer,

Try using the following configure:

./configure CC=pgcc CXX=pgCC FC=pgf77 F90=pgf90 --prefix=/shared/ben/openmpi-1.3

libtool doesn’t yet recognize our new pgfortran driver so is using the default GNU link options. Why your configure is picking up pgfortran, is unclear. Most likely you have “FC” set to “pgfortran” in you environment.

Note we have instructions on how to build OpenMPI at http://www.pgroup.com/resources/openmpi/openmpi132_pgi90.htm.

Hope this helps,
Mat

Thank you for the reply.

I am getting:

I needed to logout, log back in and the following command worked:

./configure CC=pgcc CXX=pgCC FC=pgf90 F90=pgf90 --prefix=/shared/ben/openmpi-1.3.3

Thank you for the idea that one of the environment variables was messing it up.
