Alternatively, you can specify to install to a different location with the --prefix option to configure (possibly somewhere you do have write access).

Linwei, are you running the command as root?
Try using sudo:
# sudo make install

It will ask you for an administrator password.

Dear all,

I'm new to MPI... I'm trying to install open MPI on my mac
(Leopard)..
But during the installation (with the command "make install")
it keeps generating errors of "Permission denied".... Anyone has an
idea of the reasons?
Part of the output is like:

"
Making install in etc
test -z "/usr/local/etc" || ../../config/install-sh -c -d "/usr/
local/
etc"
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 openmpi-mca-params.conf /usr/local/etc/
openmpi-mca-params.conf
install: /usr/local/etc/openmpi-mca-params.conf: Permission denied
make[3]: *** [install-data-local] Error 71
make[2]: *** [install-am] Error 2
make[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1

"


Thanks in advance!

Linwei
