[mpich-devel] Hydra fails to launch hello world on 1 proc

[Jeff Hammond]

Hi,

I'm using the latest Git trunk build of MPICH with GCC and am unable
to run a 'hello, world' program using mpiexec.

Any clues what the problem is?  I have not seen this problem before,
but this is newly refreshed laptop.  The firewall is active but I
would not have expected Hydra to need to go through the firewall to
launch a serial job.

If there's something wrong with my setup, it would be nice if Hydra
would issue a warning/error instead of handing.

Thanks,

Jeff

I compiled MPICH like this:
../configure CC=gcc CXX=g++ FC=gfortran F77=gfortran --enable-threads
--enable-f77 --enable-fc --enable-g --with-pm=hydra --enable-rpath
--disable-static --enable-shared --with-device=ch3:nemesis
--prefix=/home/jeff/eclipse/MPICH/git/install-gcc
