[Users] Compiling problem on Teragrid

[Steve White]

Dear Hui-Min,

The issues for the two TeraGrid sites are different.  Also, the config
entry for TeraGrid on the Cactus site is not very recent.

On the Caltech site, the Intel C and Fortran compilers are unfortunately
installed in separate directories.  It is possible to get around this
problem, but it would be far better to have them installed in the same
directory. (This is the fault of the Intel installer.  It should install
both in the same directory by default but instead asks the administrator
where to install.)  I'll write to the TeraGrid admin people about this.

At the NCSA site, I have compiled and run Cactus recently.  Here's the
config file I used:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
F77=ifort
F90=ifort
CC=icc
CXX=icc
C_OPTIMISE_FLAGS=-O2 -ip

HDF5=yes
HDF5_DIR=/usr/local/hdf5/1.6.2r2
MPI=MPICH
MPICH_DIR=/usr/local/mpich/mpich-gm-1.2.5..10-intel-r1
MPICH_DEVICE=ch_gm
MYRINET_DIR=/opt/gm
PTHREADS=yes
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cheers!
