Thanks for trying MPICH on the Windows platform.

However, due to lack of developer resources, MPICH no longer supports the Windows platform. Please refer to our FAQ for more information:
http://wiki.mpich.org/mpich/index.php/Frequently_Asked_Questions#Q:_Why_can.27t_I_build_MPICH_on_Windows_anymore.3F

If you want to use MPI on the Windows platform, we recommend you use Microsoft MPI, which can be found here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb524831(v=vs.85).aspx

Thanks,
Sangmin

Ok I see. I think it might not be able to see "libtooklize" because I could not find it in cygwin repositories. Just libtool, which is a dll

I don’t know where you installed your autotools, but I think https://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-01/msg00198.html would be helpful.

Hi,
If I type "which autoconf" it returns "no autoconf in.."
If I type "which autoconf-2.69" it returns "usr/bin/autoconf-2.69". i think the autogen.sh file should be change so that I can use my version but I dont know how to edit it. I dont have a txt editor handy, can you do it at all and post it in git?

what do you mean by my PATH? Also do I type in cygwin “which autoconf?
thanks

Can you confirm that your PATH includes the path for autotools? And, can you try “which automake”, “which autoconf”, and “which libtool” to see whether you are using autotools that you installed?

Hi,
do autogen now somehow see that all the autotools are in the same directory, but it says I have an oldversion of autoconf, whereas my version is 2.69 and came package with 2.13. I deleted files with extension -2.13 in the bin folder of cygwin but autogen still says my version is out of date. Can you help at all?

Hi Sangmin,
i am running into further trouble. The autogen.sh bash command wont work. I have installed autoconf automake and libtool through cygwin and autogen.sh says theyre not in the same location but I dont really know the location or what that means and which files need to be in the same location exactly. Can you help?

Hi Leo,

The fix for the alias problem has been pushed to the MPICH master. You can try the latest copy of MPICH. Please refer to https://wiki.mpich.org/mpich/index.php/Getting_And_Building_MPICH for checkout.

Hi Leo,

As Huiwei mentioned in another email, MPICH no longer supports the Windows platform. However, the error message in your m.txt is valid. We will fix the alias cycle errors.

Thanks,
Sangmin
