MPI-VASP and LibGoto library error

#1 Post by Franky » Tue Sep 18, 2007 8:07 am

Hi all,
has anyone gotten the mpi-version of vasp to work with the libgoto BLAS on a 64bit environment? If so, please tell me which compiler options you use to compile vasp (mpi-version) and the libgoto.

I find that the mpi-vasp crashes when using the libgoto BLAS (compiled for 64bit system). Using a different BLAS for the mpi-vasp works fine and compiling the libgoto into the serial version also works w/o problems.

Thanks for your help.

I am not aware of any specific problems using Goto's BLAS for parallel vasp. What error messages are written?
please check the following:
-- is the library compiled for 64-bit
-- is the LD_LIBRARY_PATH set correctly?

Hi,
it seemed to be a problem related to the compiler.If I use the gcc and g77 insted of the pgi compiler, it works.
Thanks anyway.
