That’s OK. Many of us make that mistake, though often as a typo. One thing that helps is that the correct spelling of Open MPI has a space in it, but OpenMP does not. If not aware what OpenMP is, here is a link: http://openmp.org/wp/
What makes it more confusing is that more and more apps. offer the option of running in a hybrid mode, such as WRF, with OpenMP threads running over MPI ranks with the same executable. And sometimes that MPI is Open MPI.

Thanks for all this info. Frankly, I didn't know these diferences between OpenMP and OpenMPI. The commands: which mpirun which mpif90 which mpicc give, /usr/bin/mpirun /usr/bin/mpif90 /usr/bin/mpicc respectively. A tutorial on how to compile WRF (http://www.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/OnLineTutorial/compilation_tutorial.php) provides a test program to test MPI. I ran the program and it gave me the output of successful run, which is: --------------------------------------------- C function called by Fortran Values are xx = 2.00 and ii = 1 status = 2 SUCCESS test 2 fortran + c + netcdf + mpi --------------------------------------------- It uses mpif90 and mpicc for compiling.

In addition, it also seems to have DISABLED OpenMP (NO TRAILING "I") (lines 109-111, where OpenMP stuff is commented out). So, it looks like to me your intent was to compile with MPI. Whether it is THIS MPI (OpenMPI) or another MPI (say MPICH, or MVAPICH, or Intel MPI, or Cray, or ...) only your environment can tell. What do you get from these commands: which mpirun which mpif90 which mpicc I never built WRF here (but other people here use it). Which input do you provide to the command that generates the configure script that you sent before? Maybe the full command line will shed some light on the problem.
