need help for VASP installation

#1 Post by kambiz » Mon Apr 18, 2011 4:16 am

Hi dear all,

We are trying ti install VASP 4.6 on a 32-core-server.

System:
AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 6136
Open SUSE 11
Intel Fortran Compiler: 11.0
Open MPI: 1.4.3
Atlas Blas: 3.9.35

First we want to try it as a serial version.

this is Makefile:
# all CPP processed fortran files have the extension .f90
SUFFIX=.f90

#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
# fortran compiler and linker
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
FC=/opt/intel/Compiler/11.0/084/bin/intel64/ifort
# fortran linker
FCL=$(FC)


#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
# whereis CPP ?? (I need CPP, can't use gcc with proper options)
# that's the location of gcc for SUSE 5.3
#
# CPP_ = /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/2.7.2/cpp -P -C
#
# that's probably the right line for some Red Hat distribution:
#
# CPP_ = /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/2.7.2.3/cpp -P -C
#
# SUSE X.X, maybe some Red Hat distributions:

CPP_ = ./preprocess <$*.F | /usr/bin/cpp -P -C -traditional >$*$(SUFFIX)

#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
# possible options for CPP:
# NGXhalf charge density reduced in X direction
# wNGXhalf gamma point only reduced in X direction
# avoidalloc avoid ALLOCATE if possible
# IFC work around some IFC bugs
# CACHE_SIZE 1000 for PII,PIII, 5000 for Athlon, 8000-12000 P4
# RPROMU_DGEMV use DGEMV instead of DGEMM in RPRO (depends on used BLAS)
# RACCMU_DGEMV use DGEMV instead of DGEMM in RACC (depends on used BLAS)
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------

CPP = $(CPP_) -DHOST=\"LinuxIFC\" \
-Dkind8 -DNGXhalf -DCACHE_SIZE=12000 -DPGF90 -Davoidalloc \
-DRPROMU_DGEMV -DRACCMU_DGEMV

#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
# general fortran flags (there must a trailing blank on this line)
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------

FFLAGS = -FR -lowercase -assume byterecl
----------------#-------------------------------------------------------
# -axK SSE1 optimization, but also generate code executable on all mach.
# xK improves performance somewhat on XP, and a is required in order
# to run the code on older Athlons as well
# -xW SSE2 optimization
# -axW SSE2 optimization, but also generate code executable on all mach.
# -tpp6 P3 optimization
# -tpp7 P4 optimization
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------

OFLAG=-O1

OFLAG_HIGH = $(OFLAG)
OBJ_HIGH =

OBJ_NOOPT =
DEBUG = -FR -O0
INLINE = $(OFLAG)


#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
# the following lines specify the position of BLAS and LAPACK
# on P4, VASP works fastest with the libgoto library
# so that's what I recommend
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------

# Atlas based libraries
#ATLASHOME= /opt/chemistry/lib
#BLAS= -L$(ATLASHOME) -lf77blas -latlas

# use specific libraries (default library path might point to other libraries)
BLAS= /opt/chemistry/lib/libf77blas.a /opt/chemistry/lib/libatlas.a

# use the mkl Intel libraries for p4 (www.intel.com)
# mkl.5.1
# set -DRPROMU_DGEMV -DRACCMU_DGEMV in the CPP lines
#BLAS=-L/opt/intel/Compiler/11.0/084/mkl/lib/em64t/ -lmkl_p4 -lpthread

# mkl.5.2 requires also to -lguide library
# set -DRPROMU_DGEMV -DRACCMU_DGEMV in the CPP lines
#BLAS=-L/opt/intel/mkl/lib/32 -lmkl_p4 -lguide -lpthread

# even faster Kazushige Goto's BLAS
# http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/kgoto/signup_first.html
#BLAS= /opt/libs/libgoto/libgoto_p4_512-r0.6.so

# LAPACK, simplest use vasp.4.lib/lapack_double
LAPACK= ../vasp.4.lib/lapack_double.o

# use atlas optimized part of lapack
#LAPACK= ../vasp.4.lib/lapack_atlas.o -llapack -lcblas

# use the mkl Intel lapack
#LAPACK= -lmkl_lapack

#-----------------------------------------------------------------------

LIB = -L../vasp.4.lib -ldmy \
../vasp.4.lib/linpack_double.o $(LAPACK) \
$(BLAS)

# options for linking (for compiler version 6.X, 7.1) nothing is required
LINK =
# compiler version 7.0 generates some vector statments which are located
# in the svml library, add the LIBPATH and the library (just in case)
#LINK = -L/opt/intel/compiler70/ia32/lib/ -lsvml

#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
# fft libraries:
# VASP.4.6 can use fftw.3.0.X (http://www.fftw.org)
# since this version is faster on P4 machines, we recommend to use it
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------

FFT3D = fft3dfurth.o fft3dlib.o
#FFT3D = fftw3d.o fft3dlib.o /opt/libs/fftw-3.0.1/lib/libfftw3.a


#=======================================================================
# MPI section, uncomment the following lines
#
# one comment for users of mpich or lam:
# You must *not* compile mpi with g77/f77, because f77/g77
# appends *two* underscores to symbols that contain already an
# underscore (i.e. MPI_SEND becomes mpi_send__). The pgf90/ifc
# compilers however append only one underscore.
# Precompiled mpi version will also not work !!!
#
# We found that mpich.1.2.1 and lam-6.5.X to lam-7.0.4 are stable
# mpich.1.2.1 was configured with
# ./configure -prefix=/usr/local/mpich_nodvdbg -fc="pgf77 -Mx,119,0x200000" \
# -f90="pgf90 " \
# --without-romio --without-mpe -opt=-O \
#
# lam was configured with the line
# ./configure -prefix /opt/libs/lam-7.0.4 --with-cflags=-O -with-fc=ifc \
# --with-f77flags=-O --without-romio
#
# please note that you might be able to use a lam or mpich version
# compiled with f77/g77, but then you need to add the following
# options: -Msecond_underscore (compilation) and -g77libs (linking)
#
# !!! Please do not send me any queries on how to install MPI, I will
# certainly not answer them !!!!
#=======================================================================
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
# fortran linker for mpi: if you use LAM and compiled it with the options
# suggested above, you can use the following line

#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
# additional options for CPP in parallel version (see also above):
# NGZhalf charge density reduced in Z direction
# wNGZhalf gamma point only reduced in Z direction
# scaLAPACK use scaLAPACK (usually slower on 100 Mbit Net)

and it compiles without any errors.

However. when I want to the test benchmark, it gives this error:

#2 Post by alex » Mon Apr 18, 2011 10:35 am

Hi kambiz, the variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not set in your .cshrc/.profile. So shared libraries won't be found, hence the error.

Cheers,

Alex

Thanks dear Alex,

However, because this is the first time we r dealing with LINUX and VASP installation, would u please tell me how can I fix the problems?
Should I change /etc/csh.cshrc???

I really appreciate your help.

Thanks
Kambiz

please edit your .cshrc file (probably in your $HOME directory) and insert the LD_LIBRARY_PATH such that all directories which contain the libraries that are needed to run vasp are given in that path.. you have to add this path to your $PATH.
