In that case you should put the whole path in your PATH variable. You can try to locate the exact path of a command with `locate name_of_the_command`. In general you need to provide the whole path to the command you want to execute; program's own bin directory is not automatically included in the search path. If your program has trouble finding its libraries, you might have to use the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable, or put the library path into the /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig. Like I said, I don't use MPICH, so I don't know if that is the case with MPICH. > PWD=/root > LANG=en_US > MPI=/opt/gnu/mpich-1.2.7/bin/ > *************************************************************** > What can be happening? > Thank you! > > Ivan > > -- > ----------------------------------------------------------- > Ivan S.
