Hi all:

I'm using openmpi-1.4.2. I need to run pvserver(a mpi program of
paraview) in a cluster. I have Mac OS X 10.6.4 in all my hosts and in
the server. I had configure ssh
with no password.


I try tu run pvserver (The paraview server) in a cluster, using the next
comand:

$ mpirun --hostfile myHostFile -np 12 pvserver -tdx=4 -tdy=3
Listen on port: 11111
Waiting for client...


Then in my client i run paraview an I connect to the server
$ paraview
Waiting for server...


The server tries to open the viewport in the other computers but here
is the error

$mpirun --hostfile myHostFile -np 12 pvserver -tdx=4 -tdy=3
Listen on port: 11111
Waiting for client...
Client connected.

kCGErrorRangeCheck: On-demand launch of the Window Server is allowed
for root user only.
Tue Jul 20 15:42:16 macMini1.local pvserver[10059] <Error>:
kCGErrorFailure: Set a breakpoint @ CGErrorBreakpoint() to catch
errors as they are logged.

I read about that error. I found this thread

Here Takuya OSHIMA wrote that we need to run openmpi like this:

$ mpirun --no-daemonize --hostfile myHostFile -np 12 pvserver -tdx=4 -tdy=3

But this flag --no-daemonize is not part of mpirun yet, i guess it's
not implemented in version 1.4.2.

My questions are:

Is there an equivalent flag in openmpi-1.4.2 for --no-daemonize??
If not, How could I run mpirun in order not to run in background??
Does anyone has tried this??
