[mpich-discuss] having problem running MPICH on multiple nodes

Same type of problem. seems some problem with the network, but as I
mentioned I run openmpi on it perfectly, both TCP and infiniband. machines
are not behind a firewall. Same problem even if I run mpirun on one of the
nodes. (not headnode)


Fatal error in MPI_Send: Unknown error class, error stack:
MPI_Send(174)..............: MPI_Send(buf=0x7fff9cb16128, count=1, MPI_INT,
dest=1, tag=0, MPI_COMM_WORLD) failed
