Subject: Re: AMBER: Compiler issues with Altix450

I have been able to compile to some degree after locating the icc compiler. However, compilation of the leap program hangs up due to the lack of an /usr/X11/IntrinsicP.h file needed for compilation of the WcActCB.c program. This IntrinsicP.h file is indeed absent from the /usr/X11 directory.

What is the best solution to this problem? Is there a IntrinsicP.h file I can get somehow? Or is there a problem generating this file?

The compiler error is listed below:

The Intel compilers, obviously. It would be extremely strange if you
had an Altix system with no access to the Intel compilers.

Huh... which instructions are you reading?

You should try this first:

./configure nopar sgi_altix

This sets you up for a serial version on the Altix, then when you're
OK that it works,

./configure mpi sgi_altix

sets up the parallel version.

> I have also tried an ifort compiler which works for the smaller programs but not sander (an error appears regarding a program "icc" which I am not familiar with and was not installed with our cluster).

icc is the Intel C compiler. If it isn't installed, your Altix
installation is seriously FUBAR.
