[Pw_forum] Installation Problems: Can not found MKL
Hi, All I am installing espresso-4.1.3 in intel cluster. I have installed the latest intel compiler(v11.069) and MKL(the same as compiler). I compiled with configure like this: ./configure -enable-shared LIBDIRS="/home/software/intel/Compiler/11.1/069/lib/intel64 /home/software/intel/Compiler/11.1/069/mkl/lib/em64t" --prefix=/home/software/espresso F77=ifort CC=icc But shows as follow: checking whether Fortran files must be preprocessed... no checking how to get verbose linking output from ifort... -v checking for Fortran libraries of ifort... -L/home/software/intel/Compiler/11.1/069/lib/intel64 -L/home/software/intel/Compiler/11.1/069/ipp/em64t/lib -L/home/software/intel/Compiler/11.1/069/mkl/lib/em64t -L/home/software/intel/Compiler/11.1/069/tbb/intel64/cc4.1.0_libc2.4_kernel2.6.16.21/lib -L/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2 -L/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/../../../../lib64 -L/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.2/../../.. -L/lib64 -L/lib -L/usr/lib64 -L/usr/lib -lifport -lifcore -limf -lsvml -lm -lipgo -lirc -lpthread -lgcc_s -lirc_s -ldl checking for dummy main to link with Fortran libraries... none checking for Fortran name-mangling scheme... lower case, underscore, no extra underscore checking for library containing dgemm... no in /opt/intel/mkl/*/lib/em64t: checking for library containing dgemm... no in /opt/intel/mkl*/lib/em64t: checking for library containing dgemm... no checking for library containing dgemm... no in /usr/local/lib: checking for library containing dgemm... no checking for library containing dgemm... no in /usr/local/lib: checking for library containing dgemm... no checking for library containing dspev... no in /usr/local/lib: checking for library containing dspev... no setting BLAS_LIBS... ../flib/blas.a setting LAPACK_LIBS... ../flib/lapack.a checking for library containing dfftw_execute_dft... -lfftw3 setting FFT_LIBS... -lfftw3 setting MASS_LIBS... checking for library containing mpi_init... none required setting MPI_LIBS... checking for library containing mpi_init...

This configure script attempts to find them, but may fail if they have been installed in non-standard locations. If a required library is not found, the local copy will be compiled. The following libraries have been found: BLAS_LIBS=../flib/blas.a LAPACK_LIBS=../flib/lapack.a FFT_LIBS= -lfftw3 Please check if this is what you expect. If any libraries are missing, you may specify a list of directories to search and retry, as follows: ./configure LIBDIRS="list of directories, separated by spaces" Parallel environment detected successfully. Configured for compilation of parallel executables. For more info, read the ESPRESSO User's Guide (Doc/users-guide.tex). configure: success It seems not found the MKL. What's the problem? How to solve it?

[Pw_forum] Question about slow speed of version 4.1.3
Dear PWSCF users, I have a question regarding newer PWSCF version 4.1.3. I have been using 4.0.3 version for a while. I have recently complied 4.1.3 (which is done successfully) but surprised to see that it is a lot slower than 4.0.3. Installation has been done in the same envirement. I have been using Intell-cc-10, intell_fc_10, mkl10 and openmpi Apparently i am stuck somewhere in compatability. I would appreciate if you could help me solve this problem with best regards saqib javaid University of strasbourg This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.

[Pw_forum] GWW+U
Dear Ali Kazempour, The CVS version of the GWW code is implemented to work also with the LDA or GGA+U w.f. and energies as a starting guess for the G0W0 calculations. The way to use the code is similar than without the U, excepted that in the initial scf input file, you have to add all the "espresso input flags" performing the U calculations. The other files "*.pw4gww.in" and "inputgww" are unchanged (see http://gww.qe-forge.org) ...

[Pw_forum] General question about occupations
Dear Paolo You were right, changing the number of processors has worked, no matter the option of occupations I choose and the length of the vacuum. Even more, trying with the same script than before, the same numbers of processors, the same machine, etc. has worked. Thus, I guess there is not any real problem and that the machines where I sent the scripts were having some kind of problem those days and have been fixed, I should ask. Sorry for that and thank you very much for your help Julen University of the Basque Country -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The problem comes from Pseudo Potential files. Their formats are old ones. You should download the new Pseudo Potential files of N and H from http://www.quantum-espresso.org/pseudo.php, then rerun your problem.
