[mpich-discuss] mpich 3.0.2 last release

Mon Feb 25 07:58:36 CST 2013

You should contact the Titan2d group about this issue.  Their software is assuming MPICH2 and does not seem to be compatible with the newer MPICH.  Furthermore, MPICH currently is not working/supported on Cygwin, so you might have trouble there as well.

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.

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
