[maker-devel] maker mpi failed

Hi Carson,
I didn't know maker does not work with MVAPICH2. The cluster I was installing maker on only has mvapich2. So I guess I will have to install mpich2 under my directory. However, I installed perl threading based on mvapich2. Does that mean I need to reinstall perl with mpich2 before reinstalling maker?

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 ……

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