I try to instal it using install.packages or after download and save it on my local dir and run R CMD INSTALL packagename and, both, I get these errors: checking mpi.h usability... no checking mpi.h presence... no checking for mpi.h... no Try to find mpi.h ... Cannot find mpi header file. Please use --with-mpi=/path/to/mpi ERROR: configuration failed for package 'Rmpi' I search on archivies help but dont get any issues. I use Rmpi_0.4-9.tar.gz. What I to do to fiz it? Thanks Marcelo
If you have MPI installed, it is not somewhere Rmpi can find it. The output you quote tells you how to to fix this, if it is really is installed. See also the README file in the package.

Why don't you use the wonderful packages of Dirk Edenb?ttel ? You can install them smoothly by "apt-get install <package-name>"?? Maybe 'apt-cache search mpi' will be a step forward.....> > I search on archivies help but dont get any issues. > > I use Rmpi_0.4-9.tar.gz.or did you read the install instructions of Rmpi, especially the part on dependencies. Mostly there are some information on what packages have to be installed before starting to compile Rmpi package. regards Thomas
