similar to: Status of Rmpi--Good with tweaks

Rmpi is not currently available on CRAN, and I don't think it has been for a few months. It is available at http://www.stats.uwo.ca/faculty/yu/Rmpi/ Does anyone know its current status? A few months ago I corresponded with the author, who noted some build problems (specifically on Debian) were the hang up, and seemed to be working on it. I wasn't able to get it to work then (on a

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, 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

Has anybody tried to use Rmpi with the OpenMPI library instead of LAM/MPI? LAM appears to be somewhat hardcoded in the Rmpi setup. Before I start to experiment with changing this, has anybody else tried Rmpi with non-LAM MPI implementations?

This is a rather obscure question, I realize. I have written to the package author but have not heard back as of yet. I have read the README in the package, as well, but it didn't give me enough detail to diagnose the problems that I am having. (I did edit out the LAM-MPI check in zzz.R.in.) I am working to install Rmpi on top of MPICH on a beowulf cluster. Below is the output of the

Dear R People: Here are my latest attempts for Rmpi: This is the list of locations for mpi.h: /home/faculty/hodgess/mpich2-1.0.5p4/src/include/mpi.h /home/faculty/hodgess/include/mpi.h /home/faculty/hodgess/lam-7.1.4/romio/adio/sgi/mpi3.1/mpi.h /home/faculty/hodgess/lam-7.1.4/share/include/mpi.h /usr/src/linux-2.4.21-20.EL/drivers/addon/fusion_20505/lsi/mpi.h

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. And I got error as below: * Installing *source* package 'Rmpi' ...

Hello, I've installed R on my RHEL3 cluster and I am trying to get Rmpi to work properly. R is installed using the following ./configure --prefix=/home/apps/R-2.2.0 I installed snow using R CMD INSTALL /home/apps/snow And finaly Rmpi R CMD INSTALL /home/apps/Rmpi --configure-args=--with-mpi=/path/to/lam There were no errors or warnings upon installation. However when i perform the test

Hi. I am the maintainer of Rmpi package. Now I have a problem regarding the change of CHAR () in R 2.6.0. According to R 2.6.0 NEWS: ******* CHAR() now returns (const char *) since CHARSXPs should no longer be modified in place. This change allows compilers to warn or error about improper modification. Thanks to Herve Pages for the suggestion. ******* Unfortunately this

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

After several trial and error attempts, I managed to install the Rmpi package without error on my Linux machine, running Fedora 5. I installed lam-7.1.2, lam-devel-7.1.2 and R-2.4.1, R-devel-2.4.1 The Package Rmpi_5.0-3.tar.gz, I installed once from within R and once from the command line to make sure, I link the right libraries: R CMD INSTALL Rmpi_5.0-3.tar.gz

Guys, I'm running LAM 7.1.4 and R/Rmpi on a SuSE 9.3 box. When I do >library(Rmpi) The whole thing crashes with the following message: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- No SSI RPI modules said that they were available to run. This should only happen if you request an MPI thread level that is too high (for example, none of the SSI RPI modules

I am trying to build Rmpi on Suse 10.2 linux. While I would like to use the RPM version of liblam-7.1.2, I have not been able to do so. It seems that Rmpi makes some pretty strong assumptions when trying to guess the MPI version. Has anyone successfully built Rmpi against lam-7.1.2 recently using R-2.6.0? If so, can you give some pointers about where the libraries and header files need to be

I am trying to install the R package "Rmpi" which needs libmpi.

I'm having trouble with R CMD INSTALL Rmpi_0.5-5.tar.gz --configure-args=~/lam lam is is installed locally. lamboot -d (or lamboot-d and also recon) works. make -k check from the lamtest suite passes all tests. Is this is problem with the -fPIC compiler as in the message? Should it be modified in the Makefile? Any help or comments are appreciated, thanks. * Installing to library

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 R-users, I am trying to make Snow and Rmpi working on an heterogenous cluster of linux computers. The master computer is built on a 64 bit architecture whereas all nodes are built on a 32 bit architecture. LAM/MPI was installed successfully on all machine. LAM boots correctly on the master computer and it recognizes all nodes defined in the lamhosts file. However, when starting R,
