Hello, all.

I'm compiling NWChem in an intel machine using ics(intel cluster studio) package.

The compile was successful, yet an error message halts the calculation.

It is the same situation either running in parallel or in background directly.

Here's my output.

Command: /home/kmh603/programs/nwchem-6.1/bin/LINUX64/nwchem simple.nw

Result:

argument  1 = simple.nw

For further details see manual section:




0:0:Fatal Error: scratch directory not accessible:: 911

Last System Error Message from Task 0:: No such file or directory
application called MPI_Abort(comm=0x84000001, 911) - process 0


Same error occurs if I set SCRATCH_DIR in the input file like this:

could not open a file in scratch directory: /home/kmh603/nwchem

Also it fails if I use the command:
mpirun -np (either 1 or whatever number) /home/kmh603/programs/nwchem-6.1/bin/LINUX64/nwchem simple.nw

I'm not sure why it fails to find only scratch directory.
I think it should be a problem due to compile not permission because it was faild even in my own directory.

Setup for compile environment is as below:

setenv NWCHEM_TOP /home/kmh603/programs/nwchem-6.1
setenv NWCHEM_TARGET LINUX64
setenv ARMCI_NETWORK MPI-TS
setenv USE_MPI y
setenv USE_MPIF y
setenv USE_MPIF4 y
setenv MPI_LOC ${I_MPI_ROOT}
setenv MPI_LIB $MPI_LOC/lib64
setenv MPI_INCLUDE $MPI_LOC/include64
setenv LIBMPI "-lmpigf -lmpigi -lmpi_ilp64 -lmpi"
setenv NWCHEM_MODULES "qm"
setenv CC 'mpicc -cc=icc'
setenv FC 'mpif90 -f90=ifort'
setenv BLASOPT "-L${MKLROOT}/lib/intel64 -lmkl_intel_ilp64 -lmkl_intel_thread -lmkl_core -lmkl_blacs_intelmpi_ilp64 -lpthread -lm -liomp5"

and

$I_MPI_ROOT="/appl/intel/impi/4.0.3.008"
$MKLROOT="/appl/intel/composer_xe_2011_sp1.6.233/mkl"
mpif90="/appl/intel/impi/4.0.3.008/intel64/bin/mpif90"

I'm a novice at compiling, so any question or advice on my compiling setup will be helpful for me.
Thanks in advance.
