MPI run failed but deal.ii works #731

Closed Laurent-777 closed 8 years ago

Laurent-777 commented 8 years ago

Deal.ii successfully installed as well as its compilation and tests (in progress : success for up to step-16 but step-5).

ASPECT 1.3 successfully build but run fails (PETSC set ON or OFF). See log files.

Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6.8). Inetl Core 2 Duo. GNU cc 5.3.0, OpenMPI 1.8.8 (NB currently Xcode and GNU CC and Open MPI totally rebuilt to verify correct installation).

ASPECT 1.3 successfully build

In your logfile it looks like you do not compile correctly.

For OSX I can recommend using the binary packages. Can you try https://github.com/luca-heltai/dealii/releases please?

In case this is still a problem for anyone, homebrew does an excellent job (brew install dealii --HEAD). The --HEAD flag installs the latest version from the github repository (8.4.0-pre), which includes a patch related to zlib warnings.

Dear Sir :

In fact, I found that two mpirun existed in my APPLE computer : one the one hand, mpi installation via Xcode ; on the other hand, the mpi installation I build myself with to my own GNU cc compiler suite.

I build deal.ii with my own OpenMPI software, but run Aspect with the Xcode mpirun, and it failed. Besides, I had to fix some issues with the STEP tutorial. For example, a STEP file needed METIS that was not installed in my computer, and I had to build it to incorporate in dela.ii. Next, STEP-34 needs OpenCascade to be incorporated in deal.ii too. However, SETP-34 with OpenCascade compiled as serial. I am currently building deal.ii with OpenCascade as MPI-compiled, and I will try it.

Eventually, I will try all these with ASPECT. A quick guide installation of deal.ii will probably written and issued by myself, dedicated to Mac OS X platform, with informations of third-party software needed by deal.ii.

Kind regards,

Laurent Delphin

Yes, you need to have a single mpi library and use it to compile deal.II, all the dependencies, and finally also use the mpirun/mpiexec wrapper from this library.

I am closing this issue.
