Windows Vista 64-bit / MPICH2
Posted: Thu Dec 11, 2008 7:52 pm
Could anyone please tell me if it is possible to run OpenSeesSP in Vista 64-bit plattform, by installing the MPICH2 version for 64-bit? I would like to take advantage of 8 processors in a 64-bit system.
I tried downloading the binary from www.mcs.anl.gov, corresponding to Win64 EM64T/AMD6, but it seems that it doesn't have the complete set of files necessary.
After I intall the .msi, the smpd service never initiates (even if I double click the icon with the UAC off), but more strangely, there are no wmpiregister, wmpiexec, wmpiconfig executables in the bin folder, so I can't do the registry part.
Also, the MPICH2 folder in Programs is never created.
Can someone help me please?
Thanks
