hi, thanks for the information, it's just that I am having some problem
configuring paraview with openmpi



I have set my cmake variables as such :



MPI_EXTRA_LIBRARY : MPI_EXTRA_LIBRARY-NOTFOUND



MPI_INCLUDE_PATH  :
/home/kalpanak/Installation_Files/OpenMPI/openmpibuild/include



MPI_LIBRARY :



/home/kalpanak/Installation_Files/OpenMPI/openmpibuild/lib/libmpi.a;

/home/kalpanak/Installation_Files/OpenMPI/openmpibuild/lib/libmpi_cxx.a;

/home/kalpanak/Installation_Files/OpenMPI/openmpibuild/lib/libopen-pal.a;

/home/kalpanak/Installation_Files/OpenMPI/openmpibuild/lib//libopen-rte.a;

/home/kalpanak/Installation_Files/OpenMPI/openmpibuild/lib/openmpi/libompitv.a





And this is how I build my openmpi

./configure --prefix=/home/kalpanak/Installation_Files/OpenMPI/openmpibuild
 --enable-static
--disable-shared



I have added the bin to the path and lib to the ld_library_path





What am I doing wrong..



I keep getting errors when I used only libmpi.a, then I came across
http://public.kitware.com/pipermail/paraview/2007-September/005905.html



this link, and I modified my configuration to the same information on the
website and I still receive errors., something to do with pthread_fork….



Do you think it's the openmpi version, conflicts with Paraview 3.2.1
maybe...?, am using openmpi-1.2.5
