[FLASH-BUGS] configuration MPICH

[JB Gallagher]

Alessandro,

Try the following:

setenv FC ifc
setenv F90 ifc
setenv FFLAGS "-Vaxlib"
setenv RSHCOMMAND ssh
(if using bource like shell, change the above to: export FC=ifc etc..)

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mpich-1.2.5 --with-romio
gmake ; gmake install


This should get mpich built. Once it is installed edit /usr/local/mpich-1.2.5/bin/mpif90 and mpif77 and make
sure "-Vaxlib" is defined in the variable "BASE_FLAGS". One thing I will point out is that you need to use ifc
6.0 for flash, there are known problems in building flash with ifc 7.0, if you can't get access to ifc 6.0 let
me know.

Thanks,

--Brad
