I was somehow confused when I wrote my last email and I mixed up the
MPI versions (thanks to Dick Treumann for gently pointing me to the
truth). Before MPI 2.1, the MPI Standard was unclear how the
MPI_Finalize should behave in the context of spawned or joined worlds,
which make the disconnect+finalize the only safe and portable way to
correctly finalize all processes connected. However, the MPI 2.1 had
clarified this point, and now MPI_Finalize is collective over all
connected processes (for a definition of connected processes please
see the MPI 2.1 10.5 page 318).
However, if you really want to write a portable MPI application, I
suggest to use the disconnect+finalize, at least until all MPI
libraries available are 2.1 compliant.
Open MPI 1.3 version was supposed to be 2.1 compliant, so I guess I'll
have to create a new bug report for this.
Thanks,
george.

It can be a possibility.

Hi Bernard
The structure looks as far as i can see.
Did it run OK on Open-MPI 1.2.X?
So are you sure all processes reach the MPI_Finalize command?
Usually MPI_Finalize only completes when all processes reach it.
I think you should also make sure that all MPI_Sends are matched by
corresponding MPI_Recvs.

Thanks Jody for your answer.
I launch 2 instances of my program on 2 processes each instance, =
on the same
machine.
I use MPI_Publish_name, MPI_Lookup_name to create a global =
communicator on
the 4 processes.
Then the 4 processes exchange data.
The main program is a CORBA server. I send you this program.

jody a =E9crit :
For instance:
- how many processes on how many machines,
- what kind of computation
- perhaps minimal code which reproduces this failing
- configuration settings, etc.
See: http://www.open-mpi.org/community/help/
Without any information except for "it doesn't work",
nobody can give you any help whatsoever.

Hello Jeff,
I don't understand what you mean by "A _detailed_ description of =

The problem is a dead lock in MPI_Finalize() function. All =
processes are
blocked in this MPI_Finalize() function.

Per this note on the "getting help" page, we still need the =

"A _detailed_ description of what is failing. The more details =
