Error message in Parallel: "child killed:unknown signal"

Post by igidaris »

Hi all

I am trying to use Opensees in parallel. So after following the instructions (http://opensees.berkeley.edu/wiki/index ... Processing) for installing MPICH2 and testing by executing the example cpi, then I tried to run Opensees in parallel. However I get the following error message: "chilled killed:unknown signal".

Does anyone know what is the problem? It seems like that MPICH2 has been installed properly since the cpi example works.

I would greatly appreciate any help!

Thanks in advance!

Hi, it could be the version on the OpenSeesSP or OpenSeesMP executables you are using. I had the same problem, but I downloaded the latest executables (and of course properly for 32 or 64 bits) and then it worked fine.

Regards.
