I ran the effective site response analysis example with the OpenSeesSp.exe
(http://opensees.berkeley.edu/wiki/index ... oil_Column) and I get the following error. I think I have installed the “mpiexec.exe” correctly and I have change the solver to “Mumps”. Can anyone tell me how to run this example in a personal computer with the Parallel Processing? (How to change the tcl file or do some other changes?) Many thanks!

The error in my computer:

did you read the message!

for the Mumps solver use the ICNTL option, i.e. as the message says: Work array too small; use -ICNTL14 option, the default is -ICNTL 20 make 20 larger
