[Paraview] MPI Socket in use

[Adam Dershowitz]

I just built paraview on an opensuse linux box.  When I use the GUI, and a single connection it seems to work fine.  But, if I try to use multiple CPUs, or run with mpi, it fails.
I do have OpenMPI installed.  
When I first started getting the error, I googled around some and found that maybe "make install" would help (I had been running it just in the build directory).  But I am getting the same error after installing.  I also added my openmpi libraries to LD_LIBRARY_PATH (when I first tried to run it I had other errors about a shared library).

I did build with PARAVIEW_USE_MPI set to on.  It looks as though one pvserver will run, but any additional ones finds a port in use.  Clearly something is not right about how MPI is being handled, but I am not sure how to fix it.


If I try mpirun, here is error I get:

It seems that [at least] one of the processes that was started with
mpirun did not invoke MPI_INIT before quitting (it is possible that
more than one process did not invoke MPI_INIT -- mpirun was only
notified of the first one, which was on node n0).

mpirun can *only* be used with MPI programs (i.e., programs that
invoke MPI_INIT and MPI_FINALIZE).  You can use the "lamexec" program
to run non-MPI programs over the lambooted nodes.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
mpirun failed with exit status 252
 
And suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

thanks,
