openmpi parallel version OUTCAR shows "running on 0 nodes"

#1 Post by ehm » Fri Feb 27, 2009 8:52 pm

I have compiled VASP 4.6.36 using Open MPI 1.2.7. I can submit vasp jobs to any number of nodes, but the header of OUTCAR shows that the number of nodes is zero, and this causes a crash. How is this variable passed to VASP?

vasp.4.6.36 17Feb09 complex
executed on LinuxIFC date 2009.02.27 14:33:02
running on 0 nodes
distr: one band on 0 nodes, 0 groups

Thanks for any help!

this looks like an MPI-communiaction error to me (the number of used nodes is not pased on to vasp correctly)
