Description Dave Love 2016-10-19 13:41:39 UTC

Description of problem:

I tried to run something using libptscotchparmetis which failed, reporting:

  ERROR: SCOTCH_dgraphInit: Scotch compiled with SCOTCH_PTHREAD and program not launched with MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE

from a call of ParMETIS_V3_NodeND.

I don't think any EPEL/Fedora version is built with --enable-thread-multiple, so this can't work.  Even with mpich, with which I assume it will work in principle, it seems infelicitous; programs have to use MPI_Init_thread, not MPI_Init, and may not be prepared to do that.  (See INSTALL.txt.)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

scotch-6.0.4-9.el6.x86_64

I don't understand -- how does metis come into it?

Comment 3 Sandro Mani 2016-10-24 15:52:30 UTC

Ahm I meant scotch clearly. But the question remains.

Sorry, that wasn't clear.

I assumed the solution would be to build for openmpi without SCOTCH_PTHREAD, following INSTALL.txt.  I haven't had time yet to try.

What I was trying to build works with that, thanks.
