configure: error: Cannot find MPI libraries file in the MPI specified path about extrae HOT 8 CLOSED

Thanks to Mr. Johann Duffek at HSU solved the problem.
Extrae and Paraver are both working.
I am not a good github user, but he created a patch.

change_this.patch

from extrae.

To deal with non standard paths for MPI libraries, Extrae's configure has the --with-mpi-libs option that receives the full path to the MPI libraries. This patch should not be needed if using this option.

Did you find any reason not to use this option that justifies the need for this patch.

from extrae.

I tried with the --with-mpi-libs option. it does not work.

FIRST
./configure --with-mpi-libs=/opt/intel/oneapi/mpi/latest/lib/release

configure: error: Attention! You have not passed the location of the MPI library through --with-mpi option. Please, use --with-mpi to specify the location of the MPI installation on your system, or if you don't want that Extrae supports MPI instrumentation use --without-mpi instead.
THEN

./configure --with-mpi-libs=/opt/intel/oneapi/mpi/latest/lib/release --with-mpi=/opt/intel/oneapi/mpi/latest/lib/release

checking for MPI C compiler... configure: error: Cannot find ${MPI_HOME}/bin/mpicc. You can pass an alternate through MPICC environment variable.

THEN

./configure --with-mpi-libs=/opt/intel/oneapi/mpi/latest/lib/release --with-mpi=/opt/intel/oneapi/mpi/latest/lib/release MPICC=/opt/intel/oneapi/mpi/latest/bin/mpicc

We add --enable-posix-clock to your configure line so as to use clock routines that can adapt to the processor frequency changes. However, if you know for sure that your processor speed does not change, you can proceed by adding --disable-posix-clock to use the fastest clock routines

HOWEVER, if I apply this patch,I can just run like

./configure --prefix=/tmp/extrae --with-mpi=$I_MPI_ROOT --enable-openmp --with-papi=/usr --with-unwind=/usr --without-dyninst

Have you tried :

./configure --with-mpi=/opt/intel/oneapi/mpi/latest --with-mpi-libs=/opt/intel/oneapi/mpi/latest/lib/release

The --with-mpi-libs option is used to specify only the path to MPI libraries, you still need to use --with-mpi for configure to find the includes and the binaries.

from extrae.

It is like this now, saying that I dont have unwind.

if I included the unwind path
Then I get error like this

from extrae.

If I use the patch, then the code is working with the unwind path.

I am using intel oneAPI Toolkits, Base and HPC installed together
Intel® oneAPI Toolkits
Release 2023.1

from extrae.

Strange, it seems that with --with-mpi and --with-mpi-libs configure finds the MPI instalation but complains about not finding libunwind but when specifying the location of libunwind then it stops finding the MPI libraries.

We don't understand how specifying the path for unwind affects finding the MPI libraries, and it doesn't seem to happen locally on our machines. I'm leaving the issue open until further updates.

Could you please share the full output of running?

./configure --prefix=/tmp/extrae --with-mpi=$I_MPI_ROOT --with-mpi-libs=${I_MPI_ROOT}/lib/release --enable-openmp --with-papi=/usr --with-unwind=/usr --without-dyninst

from extrae.

with the commond you gave, now everything works fine now.
Then maybe this can be an example in your document.
