Error when compiling mpi4py in windows with msmpi

[chaithu krishna]

Hi Guys,

I have a problem with windows installation of mpi4py. I installed Microsoft MPI. I downloaded the source from bitbucket repo. I altered my mpi.cfg file in this way.

[msmpi]

mpi_dir = $C:\Program Files\Microsoft MPI

include_dirs = %(mpi_dir)s\Inc

libraries = msmpi

library_dirs = %(mpi_dir)s\lib\i386

I ran the following command

  python setup.py build --mpi=msmpi

and It gave me the following 

C:\Users\chaithuzz2\Desktop\mpi4py-1.3.1>SET VS90COMNTOOLS=%VS110COMNTOOLS%

C:\Users\chaithuzz2\Desktop\mpi4py-1.3.1>python setup.py build --mpi=msmpi

I think you have to remove the "$" before the "C:"

Hi Lisandro,

Thanks for your quick response. I changed it and build proceeded. In between I saw some fatal errors like this.

You can ignore these errors, they originate in configure tests for
extra features, the build does not abort. Unfortunately, Python's
distutils does not let me easily silent these configure test failures.

You need to add --mpi=msmpi, i.e:

python setup.py install --mpi=msmpi

But anyway, I think your install succeeded anyway.

Not sure what's going on.

I would suggest to try mpi4py development from the master branch (you
need to install Cython before)
https://bitbucket.org/mpi4py/mpi4py/get/master.zip

Can you point me to the exact MS MPI you installed? I'm not really a
Windows guy, but I can try to test in a box I have access to.

[chaithu krishna]

Hi Lisandro,

I got the Microsoft MPI from here.  http://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=36045

I will try to download the master branch and let you know how it goes ASAP. When building, I saw some errors like "ERROR : syntax error at ...... " and some others related to the source. Is it normal ?

Thanks

No, that is not normal. Could you show me the full output?

[chaithu krishna]

I'm attaching the log file while building. Please check it out.

This is from 1.3.1 tarball.

  

 

[chaithu krishna]

Hi Lisandro,

With the master version. While building i get the following error. Is this related to visual studio 2012 I'm using. I also have visual studio 2013 version. But I set the variable to use 2012 version as you can see below.

Good catch. I've pushed a fix. Please download the master branch again
(or perhaps better use git to clone the repository).

[chaithu krishna]

Thank you very much. I will let you know how it goes. I'm having some git clone issues on my PC. Can i download it from bitbucket Downloads folder in which there is a link "Download repository". Will that give me the latest master branch ?

Second catch, thanks! I've pushed a fix. Please try again.

[Lisandro Dalcin]

After spending a few hours setting up a virtual machine and pushing a
few fixes, now I confirm that everything seems to be working OK.

[chaithu krishna]

Thank you very much Lisandro. I appreciate your help so much. No issues now. Thanks for mpi4py :-)

Cheers and Regards,

Krishna

I had the same problem and Cython solved them all. 

Thanks :)
