[maker-devel] maker mpi failed

You either tried to run with the -dsindex option before the log file existed
or you tried to launch via MPI when not compiled for MPI or not compiled
correctly.  It's as if you called MAKER serially multiple times in a row
which you can do, but if you start too many before one of them gets a chance
to get the log file started a race condition exists.

Which MPI flavor are you using?  MVAPICH2 won't work with MAKER, MPICH2
will, and OpenMPI may or may not (non-robust shared library behavior).

You may have to reinstall MPICH2.

MAKER can try and do this for you using necessary flags to make it easier
To do this -->
cd ./maker/src
./Build mpich2

Then reinstall maker
cd ./maker/src
perl Build.PL
<say yes to mpi question>
./Build clean
./Build install

Then use this executable to launch --> ./maker/exe/mpich2/bin/mpiexec

Note you cannot use other launchers.  You have to use the one you compiled
with.

Hi, I was trying to run maker 2.26. It was compiled with MPI. The non-mpi
executable works just fine. But I got the error below while running mpirun
­n maker ŠŠ

What is this Iterator::Fasta::skip_file? Any idea what is going on here?
