I have install openmpi library from the standard apt-get install available in Ubuntu. I run a python code which call MPI libraries. I get the following error. Any ideas whatis the source of error? Is it an OpenMPI configuration error? How to fix this?

It looks like opal_init failed for some reason; your parallel process is
likely to abort. There are many reasons that a parallel process can
fail during opal_init; some of which are due to configuration or
environment problems. This failure appears to be an internal failure;
here's some additional information (which may only be relevant to an
Open MPI developer):
opal_shmem_base_select failed
--> Returned value -1 instead of OPAL_SUCCESS

*** An error occurred in MPI_Init

*** MPI_ERRORS_ARE_FATAL: your MPI job will now abort
[thebigbang:17162] Local abort before MPI_INIT completed successfully; not able to aggregate error messages, and not able to guarantee that all other processes were killed!
回答1:
Seems to be a somewhat complex problem with linking and how modules are loaded. The solution is to compile openmpi with --disable-dlopen
Compiling with --disable-mca-dso also worked for me. Unfortunately, I don't know how easy this is on ubuntu.
See http://www.open-mpi.org/faq/?category=building#avoid-dso
I found the solution here:
