Many thanks to Dr Yu for updating Rmpi for R 2.6.0, and for starting to make the changes to support Open MPI. I have just built the updated Debian package of Rmpi (i.e. r-cran-rmpi) under R 2.6.0 but I cannot convince myself yet whether it works or not. Simple tests work. E.g. on my Debian testing box, with Rmpi installed directly using Open Mpi 1.2.3-2 (from Debian) and using 'r' from

Dear all, I have used the Rmpi package many times before however this time I've installed it as I always do with openMPI tar.gz file direct from the website. I'm installing on my ubuntu 8.10. Linux 2.6.27-11-generic #1 SMP Thu Jan 29 19:28:32 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux All i get is: > library(Rmpi) Segmentation fault :~$ Which dumps me back into the shell, and doens't give me much

Hi everybody! I have the next code which makes a reduction of the *a *variable in two slaves, using the Rmpi package. library(Rmpi) mpi.spawn.Rslaves(nslaves=2) reduc<-function(){ a<-mpi.comm.rank()+2 mpi.reduce(a,type=2, op="prod") return(paste("a=",a)) } mpi.bcast.Robj2slave(reduc) mpi.remote.exec(reduc()) cat("Product: ")

Hello, I've installed R on my RHEL3 cluster and I am trying to get Rmpi to work properly.

Hi, I've been trying here to install Rmpi on an SGI IA-64 machine with 64 processors, running SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9, R 2.4.0 and lam-mpi 7.1.3. While I've read of similar problems on this list, I think I've got an entirely new set of error messages to contribute (see below). I'm not sure what the actual error is and what the @gprel relocation message is about. Any help

I am working on a SLES 10 cluster with R available on it. To better use my resources, I want to use Rmpi, but I am having a difficult time installing it. I have set the $R_LIBS variable correctly. The MPI libraries are available through the PGI compiler, but this R instance was compiled with GCC. The Rmpi package can be compiled and installed with %R CMD INSTALL Rmpi_0.5-5.tar.gz

Hello R users and developers, I would like to install Rmpi so that I may take advantage of all of the CPUs in my computer, but I cannot get it to install and I am not very good with linux so it is adding to the headache. I have looked through the help archive, but I have not been successful at getting Rmpi to work. I am not sure if I am even installing openMPI correctly in linux. I would really

Hi, I am having a problem with installing Rmpi package on redhat linux machine. The R I am using is version 2.10.1.

Hi Folks, I've recently transitioned to Debian 8.0 and was having a hard time getting Rmpi to work. I believed I'd successfully installed dependencies via > sudo apt-get install r-cran-rmpi > apt-show-versions r-cran-rmpi r-cran-rmpi:amd64/jessie 0.6-5-1 uptodate but when installing the package I was still getting checking mpi.h presence... no checking for mpi.h... no

R-users, My question is related to earlier posts about benefits of quadcore over dualcore computers; I am trying to setup a cluster of windows xp computers so that eventually I could make use of 10-20 cpu:s, but for learning how to do this, I am playing around with two laptops. I thought that the package snow would come handy in this situation, but to use snow, I would probably need to install

Hi, I am using a cluster with LAM 7.1.3/MPI 2 and R 2.6.0. Rmpi version 0.5-5 is working very well. Now I have tested "Rmpi 0.5-6". During spawning the Rslaves I get an error: MPI_Error_string: error spawning process > sessionInfo() R version 2.6.0 (2007-10-03) x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu locale:

Hi, everyone, I want to install Rmpi on a cluster with Fedora linux. It already installed mpich2, but not lam-mpi. I installed R-2.2.0 on it already.

Dear All I want to use R, Rscript und r alternately under one common configuration. The problem is that \"r\" can't find the package \"Rmpi\" and other packages whereas \"R\" has no problem to find. $ R --vanilla < mpiHelloWorld.r #!/usr/bin/env r library(Rmpi) # calls MPI_Init rk <- mpi.comm.rank(0) sz <- mpi.comm.size(0) name <-

Hi, I try use Rmpi package to my compute. In my work I'm using eclipse version 3.6.2 and statEt version 0.10.0 (launch Rterm or RJ). Actually I observed strange behavior, when I try loading Rmpi directly I don't have any problem i.e.: library("Rmpi") mpi.spawn.Rslaves() 8 slaves are spawned successfully. 0 failed. master (rank 0, comm 1) of size 9 is running on: marcin-HP

Hello, We have recently added a 64-bit 2 x Dual-Core Athlon server running Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 3 to allow for processing of large data sets (>4GB) in R. To integrate this server into our Linux cluster, I have been trying (unsuccessfully) to use Rmpi/lam-mpi to parallel process some of our scripts. While I have successfully compiled R 2.4.0 and lam-mpi 7.1.2 on this server using

I am running into the following issue that has been previously reported on the R-devel mailing list. The short version is that I'm writing a package for MPI, and I'd like to change CC and SHLIB_LD to "mpicc". Trying to change them in Makevars.in has no effect, because the values are clobbered by /etc/R/Makeconf. Will the following changes to Makeconf.in introduce any problems?

Hi I have a few problems installing/updating packages with complicated dependencies. For example, the Rmpi package: update.packages(...) checking for mpi.h... no configure: error: "Cannot find mpi.h header file" ERROR: configuration failed for package ?Rmpi? So I tried: >install.packages("Rmpi",configure.args="--with-mpi=/usr/lib/openmpi") Trying to find
