I have written some scripts (C/C++) for parallel computing with Open MPI.
Now, I have founded the Parallel::MPI module, but I have some problems.

Script init.pl

#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use Parallel::MPI::Simple qw(:all);


MPI_Init() or die("Error: $!\n");
MPI_Finalize();
[download]

Over terminal I have typed

> perl -c init.pl
Can't load '/usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0/auto/Parallel/MPI/Simple/Simple
+.so' for module Parallel::MPI::Simple: /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0/aut
+o/Parallel/MPI/Simple/Simple.so: undefined symbol: ompi_mpi_char at /
+usr/lib/perl/5.10/DynaLoader.pm line 196.

I think there is a problem with /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0/auto/Parallel/MPI/Simple/Simple.so, but

> ldd usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0/auto/Parallel/MPI/Simple/Simple.so
        linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xb8058000)
        libmpich-p4mpd.so.1.0 => /usr/lib/libmpich-p4mpd.so.1.0 (0xb7e

        libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 (0xb7ccd000)
        libpthread.so.0 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libpthread.so.0 (0xb7cb3

        libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libm.so.6 (0xb7bd0000)
        libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0xb7bc1000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb8059000)
[download]

and

> strings /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0/auto/Parallel/MPI/Simple/Simple.s
+o | grep mpi
ompi_mpi_comm_world
ompi_mpi_comm_null
ompi_mpi_int
ompi_mpi_char
libmpich-p4mpd.so.1.0
[download]

so I don't understand where is ther problem.

However I did a small change in script, so init.pl:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use Parallel::MPI qw(:all);


MPI_Init() or die("Error: $!\n");
MPI_Finalize();
[download]

and

> perl -c  init.pl
init.pl syntax OK
[download]

and I am happy.

From this article, I launch my script (like c/c++)

> mpirun -np 2 perl init.pl
MPI_Init: no arguments found in the argv at init.pl line 7.
MPI_Init: no arguments found in the argv at init.pl line 7.

There is another problem. I don't know, but I type:

>  mpirun -np 2 perl init.pl  asdada

MPI_Errhandler_set(121): MPI_Errhandler_set(comm=0x5b, errh=0x78) fail

Over this monastery, I have founded only this
ok, mpi and Perl is issue too difficult for me. And for you? :-)

My OS is Ubuntu 9.04, Perl v5.10.0, OpeMPI v1.3.
(cluster test is only my host, one processor with 2 cores)
