Problems with NWChem compilation on Linux

Dear developers!

I have to offer my apologies for sending you PM but I don't know how to start a new discussion.

Please, help me with the problems during NWChem (version 6.5) compilation.

System: Red Hat Linux 7.0
compilators: gfortran, gcc
path to compilators:/usr/bin
openmpi has been installed
Nwchem 6.5 is planned to be compiled on personal linux with 8 cores.

I do the following actions:
1. download NWChem files from the source and export them.

2. export PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin

  export NWCHEM_TOP=/usr/local/Nwchem-6.5

  export NWCHEM_TARGET=LINUX64

  export USE_MPI=y

  export USE_MPIF=y

  export USE_MPIF4=y

  export MPI_LOC=/usr/lib64/openmpi

  export MPI_LIB=$MPI_LOC/lib

  export LIBMPI="-lmpi_f90 -lmpi_f77 -lmpi -lpthread"

  export NWCHEM_MODULES="all"

  export CC=gcc

  export FC=gfortran

3. cd $NWCHEM_TOP/src

  make nwchem_config

  make >&make.log

After all I get make.log in Nwchem-6.5/src folder wth the following content :
test \! -f 64_to_32 -o \! -f 32_to_64 || rm -f 64_to_32 32_to_64

I have the following text after
1. gfortran -v command:

2. mpif90 -show and mpif90 -v commands

  bash: mpi90:command not found



After these actions I had checked /usr/bin folder and found only "exempi" file.

mpif90 is not in your current path. We need to see if 1) mpif90 is installed and 2) if mpif90 was installed, its location. Please send the output of the following commands /usr/lib64/openmpi/bin/mpif90 -show rpm -q -a \| grep openmpi rpm -q -a \| grep mpich

Here is the output of the following commands:

1. /usr/lib64/openmpi/bin/mpif90 -show

  bash: /usr/lib64/openmpi/bin/mpif90: no such file or directory

2. rpm -q -a | grep openmpi

  openmpi-1.6.4-5.el7.x86_64

3. rpm -q -a | grep mpich does not have an output

openmpi-devel
A missing RPM is required (openmpi-devel) You might be able to install it by executing sudo yum install openmpi-devel

Thank you for your advice. Now after the command "sudo yum install openmpi-devel" I have the following messages:
1. gfortran -I/usr/include/openmpi-x86_64 -pthread -m64 -I/usr/lib64/openmpi/lib -L/usr/lib64/openmpi/lib -lmpi_f90 -lmpi_f77 -lmpi

  after  /usr/lib64/openmpi/bin/mpif90 -show command

2. openmpi-1.6.4-5.el7.x86_64

   openmpi-devel-1.6.4-5.el7.x86_64

  after rpm -q -a | grep openmpi

3. rpm -q -a | grep mpich command still does not have an output

4. mpif90 -show and mpif90 -v commands indicate:

 bash: mpif90:command not found

As I understand I shold remove mpif90 but I don't exactly understand where. I tried to copy "include" directory to /usr/lib64/openmpi but this made no effect (still bash: mpi90:command not found).

(I also have changed LIBMPI to "-pthread -m64 -lmpi_f90 -lmpi_f77 -lmpi" value)

I would not recommend copying files from the RPM based MPI installation I would use the following export MPI_LIB=/usr/lib64/openmpi/lib export LIBMPI="-pthread -lmpi_f90 -lmpi_f77 -lmpi" export MPI_INCLUDE=/usr/include/openmpi-x86_64

Thank you very much for your help and support but I have still the same result: bash: mpif90:command not found. Maybe, the thing is that compilers (gfortran, gcc) and mpif90 are in different folders ( /usr/lib64/openmpi/bin and /usr/bin)?If so could you tell me if it is possible to put them in one directory? Or I'm wrong?

I did export PATH=$PATH:/usr/lib64/openmpi/bin command and after mpif90 -v I got the following text: COLLECT_GCC=/usr/bin/gfortran COLLECT_LTO_WRAPPER=/usr/libexec/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.8.3/lto-wrapper target: x86_64-redhat-linux configuration parameters: ../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --with-bugurl=http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla --enable-bootstrap --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --enable-checking=release --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit --disable-libunwind-exceptions --enable-gnu-unique-object --enable-linker-build-id --with-linker-hash-style=gnu --enable-languages=c,c++,objc,obj-c++,java,fortran,ada,go,lto --enable-plugin --enable-initfini-array --disable-libgcj --with-isl=/builddir/build/BUILD/gcc-4.8.3-20140911/obj-x86_64-redhat-linux/isl-install --with-cloog=/builddir/build/BUILD/gcc-4.8.3-20140911/obj-x86_64-redhat-linux/cloog-install --enable-gnu-indirect-function --with-tune=generic --with-arch_32=x86-64 --build=x86_64-redhat-thread model: posix gcc version 4.8.3 20140911 (Red Hat 4.8.3-9) (GCC) After that I tried to compile NWChem using strategies described in the source. The result is nwchem program in /usr/local/Nwchem-6.5/bin/LINUX64 folder. Is it correct result? If yes I would like to thank you for your patience and support.
