标题: How to correctly and safely install OpenMPI ?
Hello,
Definitely and there is no doubt OpenMPI is necessary for parallel computing in Linux OS. I entend to use Orca and Multiwfn in Linux, and i would like to know what is the correct and safe procedure to install OpenMPI.

Thanks in advance for your replies and any help.

Here is a post from Sobevera explaining how to set up orca and install openmpi: http://bbs.keinsci.com/thread-11697-1-1.html

Download the source code of OpenMPI which matches the requirements of ORCA binary, unpack it with

1. tar -xf openmpi-X.X.X.tar.gz

复制代码

or

1. tar -xf openmpi-X.X.X.tar.bz2

复制代码

depending on the format of the source code you have downloaded. Then cd into the source code directory and run configure

1. export CC=icc
   
2. export CXX=icpc
   
3. export FC=ifort
   
4. 
   
5. export CFLAGS=-O2
   
6. export CXXFLAGS=-O2
   
7. export FCFLAGS=-O2
   
8. 
   
9. ./configure \
   
10. --prefix=$HOME/soft/openmpi-X.X.X \
    
11. --enable-mpi-fortran=yes --enable-mpi-cxx=yes --enable-mpi-java=no \
    
12. --enable-wrapper-rpath=yes --enable-cxx-exceptions=yes \
    
13. --enable-shared=yes --enable-static=yes

复制代码

Note here we have utilized Intel Compilers to compile OpenMPI. You can also use GCC by

1. export CC=gcc
   
2. export CXX=g++
   
3. export FC=gfortran

复制代码

After the configuration succeeds, build OpenMPI with

1. make

复制代码

followed by testing the build

1. make check

复制代码

If everything goes well, you can install it with

1. make install

复制代码

OpenMPI will be installed to $HOME/soft/openmpi-X.X.X. After installation, update the environment variabls in ~/.bashrc such that openmpi will be available

1. export PATH=$HOME/soft/openmpi-X.X.X/bin:$PATH
   
2. export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/soft/openmpi-X.X.X/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

复制代码

If you have multiple versions of MPI installed on your server, try Environment Modules for elegantly switching between different versions.

Thank you all very much for your valuable replies, and i just have one more question.
I downloaded  the latest version of ORCA "ORCA 5.0.4", and they mentioned the version of openmpi as 4.1.1, does it hurt if i installed the latest version of openmpi  which is the version 5.0.0 ?
