Re: [R] Rmpi installation trouble

Note: libmpi.dylib: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Linux does not have .dylib's: Darwin (part of Mac OS X) does. This is not an R question (it seems to be about your MPI installation) and you need to discuss it with the package maintainer (see the posting quide).

[R] Rmpi installation problems

2011-12-02 Thread Jos Elkink
Hi all, I am trying to install the Rmpi package in R and, while the installation itself works, it breaks down when trying to load the library. I think it has something to do with shared vs static loading of helper libraries, or the order in which shared libraries are loaded, but I am not sure. R

Another update: I ditched the pre-installed version of openmpi and installed openmpi from source (./configure --without-openib). Compiling and running your test programme gives me the following error: unger@zytosrv01dmi:~/R_projects/OS> ./mtest [zytosrv01dmi:6094] *** An error occurred in MPI_Sen

Hi Hugo One step closer! I added the path to libmpi to ld.so.conf and ran ldconfig (see http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/programming-scripting/80405-linking-shared -libraries.html). Compiling the code you sent me works but running the file gets stuck with the following message: ./mtest librdmacm

Dear Kristian, please run exactly mpicc mtest.c -o mtest If you really need it, add -v separately. mpicc is nothing but a compiler wrapper. The "-o" switch specifies the outfile name, which has to follow immediately after "-o", with or without a blank character in between. I'm

Kristian, I just tried that particular command here on a Gentoo system with openmpi-1.5.3 installed, because I wondered why the Rmpi configure script tests for "main" function in a shared library ... But I got a completly different output from configure. While the linker succeeds here, the pa

Thank you very much Hugo. Using the command as suggested results exactly the same error: # R CMD INSTALL --configure-args="--with-Rmpi-include=/usr/lib64/mpi/gcc/openmpi/include --with-Rmpi-libpath=/usr/lib64/mpi/gcc/openmpi/lib64 --with-Rmpi-type=OPENMPI" Rmpi_0.5-4.tar.gz * installing to library
