[mpich-discuss] mpich 3.0.2 last release

Sun Feb 24 19:47:35 CST 2013

The matter of fact is that:

I am installing a Titan2d software (from Buffalo University, Geophysical
Mass Flow Group) in cygwin, I make a directory titan-3.0.0 (3.0.0 is the
last version), under this directory I run $ sh install-titan.sh

This script will automatically check for both MPI and HDF5 installation. If
MPI is not found in its standard location, then the user will be prompted
to enter its absolute path, or quit installation. If this script is unable
to locate HDF5, then the user will be prompted to enter its absolute path
or continue without installing HDF5.

Through the process of installetion I got this error:

$ sh install-titan.sh /usr checking for a BSD-compatible install...
/usr/bin/install -c

*checking for MPICH2... configure: error: Package requirements (mpich2-ch3)
were not met:*

*Variable 'exec_prefix' not defined in
'/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/mpich2-ch3.pc'*

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables MPICH2_CFLAGS and
MPICH2_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man
page for more details.

make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. make: Nothing
to be done for `install'.

I have installed either the openmpi from the cygwin setup, I choose full
package installation so a series of mpi packages are automatically
downloaded and installed, as well as I downloaded the last release of
mpich-3.0.2 and an older release mpich2-1.2.1p1 and I installed in cygwin
with configure, make, make install. However, titan2d installation error
tell me that the Package requirements (mpich2-ch3) were not met. I know
from the titan2d user guide that "If there are multiple copies of MPI on
your machine, this script will find and use the first one in your path". I
do not get why my instalaltion comes with this error. Any help will be
greatly appreciated
