[mpich-discuss] Internal Error: invalid error code 409e10 (Ring ids do not match)

[Gus Correa]

This is an old version of mpich.
Is it perhaps still using the mpd ring?
[If so, you need to start the mpd ring, if not already set,
before you launch the job. But that method was phased out.]
It may be worth updating to the latest mpich stable
and use the current mpiexec (hydra) to launch the job.
