Hi guyz,

Please I am trying to run a MPI program with C language.
I have installed GCC compiler and the openmpi libraries. I am running ubuntu Linux and Netbeans IDE. My challenge is that after including ‘mpi.h’ in my header file and compiling the application, i still get ‘fatal error : cannot find file mpi.c’. yes i have the files in home/user/lib/openmpi/include, but i cant get it too work.

Can anyone help?

did you install the developer version of the libraries??
Did you specify the library path to the compiler?
Are you compiling from the IDE or the command-line?

I am compiling from the IDE and yes the developer version.

I think the challenge has to do with the path, but i cant get it right. What do you think I should do.

Thanks for your response

craziest: I am compiling from the IDE and yes the developer version.

are you sure that your mpi header files are located at that path you specified??
If so, how did it end up there?
I would think they are located at /usr/includes/openmpi/include

secondly, how in the world did it request for mpi.c when you are using a compiled library?? You should be getting error like "undefined reference to..." not "mpi.c not found" or is mpi.c not part of the downloaded library?
