Your config.log file shows that you are trying to build Open MPI 2.1.6 and that configure failed.
I'm not sure how to square this with the information that you provided in your message... did you upload the wrong config.log? Can you provide all the information from https://docs.open-mpi.org/en/v5.0.x/getting-help.html? (e.g., tar all the files up in a single file – makes it easier to download and examine everything) ________________________________ From: users <users-boun...@lists.open-mpi.org> on behalf of T Brouns via users <users@lists.open-mpi.org> Sent: Friday, May 3, 2024 4:04 PM To: users@lists.open-mpi.org <users@lists.open-mpi.org> Cc: T Brouns <t.s.n.bro...@gmail.com> Subject: [OMPI users] Fwd: Unable to run basic mpirun command (OpenMPI v5.0.3) Hello, I'm experiencing issues running simple `mpirun` commands, after installing OpenMPI v5.0.3. When I run any command with `mpirun`, for example: ``` mpirun --help mpirun --version mpirun uptime mpirun hello_c.c ``` I end up with the following error (in every case): ``` -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sorry! You were supposed to get help about: prterun-exec-failed from the file: /usr/share/openmpi/help-mpirun.txt: No such file or directory But I couldn't find that topic in the file. Sorry! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ``` I've installed OpenMPI using these steps: https://docs.open-mpi.org/en/v5.0.x/installing-open-mpi/quickstart.html When I install an older version of OpenMPI (such as v4.0.5), I end up with the following error instead, when running `mpirun`: ``` -------------------------------------------------------------------------- It looks like opal_init failed for some reason; your parallel process is likely to abort. There are many reasons that a parallel process can fail during opal_init; some of which are due to configuration or environment problems. This failure appears to be an internal failure; here's some additional information (which may only be relevant to an Open MPI developer): opal_shmem_base_select failed --> Returned value -1 instead of OPAL_SUCCESS -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ``` You can find all the log files over here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/163N5Xx5UJZ7fKU172VZSGF2nPY6z0tJF?usp=sharing Love to get some help on this. Thanks. Best, Terence
