un-installing openmpi

sara.y · 07-18-2009, 07:03 AM

Hi,

I have installed openmpi-1.3.3 on openSUSE 11.0, but it seems that mpicc does not wrok.

I have checked it with 'helloworld' test as well, but still I receive the message that mpicc does not work.

I have used 'su' to install openmpi, now I want to remove it. Please kindly let me know how I can uninstall it.

Regards,

Did you compile it from source and then install it? or did you install it from a .rpm file? You need root permissions to do a system wide install so telling us that you used su doesn't help. What command did you use to install it?

sorry if my question was described insufficiently.

I downloaded openmpi-1.3.3.tar.gz from www..open-mpi.org

and I followed the following commands:

1. tar zxf openmpi-1.3.3.tar.gz
2. cd openmpi-1.3.3
3. su
[entered root's password]
4. mkdir build
5. cd build
6. ../configure
7. make all install
