[Pw_forum] compiling pw.1.2.0 using mpich and ifc for linux cluster

Hello everybody,

I have a little linux cluster of 8 nodes and have been trying to compile 
a parallel version of pw.1.2.0 for it using the intel compiler version 7.1.
I am using the MPICH library  (version 1.2.5.2) which I compiled from 
source using ifc7.1 to produce mpif90.
I ran the simple pi3f90 fortran test example using 'mpirun -np 8 a.out' 
and it worked fine, all nodes happy and running their own process.  I 
ran further tests which showed that processes where running on nodes and 
communicating properly.

Not so happy when I compiled a parallel pw.1.2.0. :(

I had managed to compile the serial version using blas, lapack and atlas 
libraries. It produces the correct results and functions very well.
I compiled a parallel version, which compiled without any errors (I used 
the -DPARA -D__MPI CPP flags and set the compiler to mpif90).  When I 
run the parallel pw.x using mpirun -np 4 pw.x I get the following message:
mpirun -np 4 bin/pw.x


** Address Error **


End of diagnostics

Oh dear! The program didn't get very far.

The make.sys file is included here.  Can any kind soul offer some 
assistance ??  Many thanks.
