Hi, I am trying to install the package Rmpi on the HPC of my university. I am getting this error message: configure: error: Unknown type of mpi: use --with-Rmpi-type or RMPI_TYPE to specify it ERROR: configuration failed for package 'Rmpi' * removing '/mnt/gaiagpfs/users/homedirs/sjankovic/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.4/Rmpi' Thanks for your answer! Best, Sanja
install package Rmpi

Presumably, the cluster has some type of MPI implementation Rmp config didn't detect. Which type of MPI are you using, and where (which path) is it installed? (If you don't know, the support people at your cluster will know.)

Here is how you set it as an options in R; this code sets a configure option for the Rmpi package. options(configure.args = c(Rmpi = "--with-Rmpi-type=OPENMPI")) Now, the value (in my case OPENMPI) depends on your system. It was surprisingly hard to figure out the possible values in Rmpi, I think I had to read the configure script or something - unfortunately I forgot where to find it. It was much harder than expected though. On Thu, Nov 16, 2017 at 7:45 AM, Bj?rn-Helge Mevik <b.h.mevik at usit.uio.no> wrote:
