Hi, I'm trying install openMPI on my macbook running os x 10.9.2 with Xcode 5.1.1.

tar.gz file, you can untar/zip it by typing Open Terminal.app and change directories to the new location of the Open MPI archive. At the time of posting the current stable release of Open MPI is version 1.6.5.Ĭopy the archive file to a temporary location to compile it. The installation of Open MPI on Mac is surprisingly easy.

Fortran and or C/C++ compilers (If you don't have compliers installed, check out the HOWTO on installing the GNU compilers).

A Mac running Mac OS 10.6 (Snow Leopard), 10.7 (Lion), 10.8 (Mountain Lion) or 10.9 (Mavericks).

To install Open MPI as described in this HOWTO, you'll need the following: Almost any machine purchased in the last year or two has multiple processor cores. Second, multi-core computers are the future. To me, this is the biggest motivation, since I can test software more easily on my desktop (or laptop) machine than on a cluster. Why might you consider installing Open MPI? First, many programs that were designed to run distributed across several computers using MPI can now be run on a multi-core modern desktop computer.
