Hi, I failed to compile WPS in DMPAR configuration. I've installed successfully openmpi in usr/lib64/openmpi. But it can not be recognized when compiling WPS. Does Anyone help me?
Code:
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib64/openmpi/lib: file not recognized: Is a directory
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: [Makefile:13: geogrid.exe] Error 1 (ignored)

Hi,
Is there a reason why you need to install WPS with dmpar? We typically recommend compiling WPS serially, even if you installed WRF with dmpar. The only need for a distributed-memory WPS installation is if you are going to be using an extremely large domain (several thousands x several thousands of grid cells).
 
okay, I tried to compile in serial configuration. Yet, I still got the same problem like before. I attached my compile log. Do you have any idea to solve it?

Hi,
Thanks for trying that. When you recompiled serially, did you first issue a 'clean -a' to clean the previous WPS compile? If not, try that first, then reconfigure for a serial build, then recompile. If you did that, will you please attach the following files? Thanks!
configure.wrf
wrf compile log
configure.wps
 
I got a solution to my problem. Actually, I installed MPICH in two places in root and home. When I inactivated mpich installed in root. then, I recompiled with serial configuration. I generated successfully geogrid, metgrid and ungrib. Thank you kwerner for your attention.
 
I'm so glad you were able to get past the problem. Thank you for updating the post!
