I get the same dead lock with openmpi tests: pubsub, accept and connect with version 1.5.1

Jeff,

The dead lock is not in MPI_Comm_accept and MPI_Comm_connect, but before in MPI_Publish_name and MPI_Lookup_name.
So the broadcast of srv is not involved in the dead lock.

Jeff,

Only the processes of the program where process 0 successed to publish name, have srv=1 and then call MPI_Comm_accept. The processes of the program where process 0 failed to publish name, have srv=0 and then call MPI_Comm_connect.

That's worked like this with openmpi 1.4.1.

Is it different whith openmpi 1.5.1 ?

Best
Bernard

You're broadcasting srv here -- won't everyone now have *srv==1, such that they 
all call MPI_COMM_ACCEPT, below?

  if ( *srv )
    /* I am the Master */
    MPI_Comm_accept( port_name, MPI_INFO_NULL, 0, MPI_COMM_WORLD, &gcom );
  else{
    /*  Connect to service SERVER, get the inter-communicator server*/
    MPI_Errhandler_set(MPI_COMM_WORLD, MPI_ERRORS_RETURN);
    if ( MPI_Comm_connect(port_name_clt, MPI_INFO_NULL, 0, MPI_COMM_WORLD, 
&gcom )  == MPI_SUCCESS )
      printf("[%d] I get the connection with %s at %s !\n",myrank, service, 
port_name_clt);
    MPI_Errhandler_set(MPI_COMM_WORLD, MPI_ERRORS_ARE_FATAL);
  }

  if(myrank != 0) *srv = 0;

  return gcom;

}
