Hi Jennis, FWIW, I run MTT using an MTT source code checkout. (This is admittedly not the Right Way to distribute software, but it works.) Try this:
$ svn checkout https://svn.open-mpi.org/svn/mtt/branches/ompi-core-testers $ cd ompi-core-testers $ client/mtt --file samples/ompi-core-template.ini --verbose On Wed, Jan/23/2008 02:44:37PM, Jennis Pruett wrote: > > I'm following the instructions on the MTT setup page.

You only need it if, e.g., a certain perl module needed by MTT is in a non-standard location. E.g., if you get errors like the below, you will need to set PERLLIB (and PERL5LIB) to the location of the missing module: Can't locate Foo.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /ws/ompi-tools/perl/lib/sun4-solaris-64int /ws/ompi-tools/perl/lib /ws/ompi-tools/perl/lib/usr/perl5/site_perl/5.8.4/sun4-solaris-64int /usr/perl5/5.8.4/lib/sun4-solaris-64int /usr/perl5/5.8.4/lib /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.8.4/sun4-solaris-64int /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.8.4 /usr/perl5/site_perl /usr/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.4/sun4-solaris-64int /usr/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.4 /usr/perl5/vendor_perl .) at -e line 1.

Let me know if you get something like the above (in some odd perl installations LWP::UserAgent won't be found). -Ethan > New to this, thanks., > Jenny > ----- > > If you do not have root access: > > $ perl Makefile.PL LIB=<your dir> PREFIX=<your dir> > $ make > $ make install > > You will then need to point PERLLIB to <your dir> to run MTT. > _______________________________________________ > mtt-users mailing list > mtt-us...@open-mpi.org > http://www.open-mpi.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/mtt-users
