Hi All I have installed openmpi in C:\Program Files\OpenMPI_v1.5.4-win32\ in an XP box and want to compile boost to produce graph-parallel library. But got the following error: The system cannot find the path specified. The system cannot find the path specified. The system cannot find the path specified. The system cannot find the path specified. MPI auto-detection failed: unknown wrapper compiler C:/Program Files/OpenMPI_v1. 5.4-win32/bin/mpic++.exe Please report this error to the Boost mailing list: http://www.boost.org You will need to manually configure MPI support. MPI launcher: mpirun -np when I ran in a Visual Studio 2010 command prompt: b2 --toolset=msvc-10.0 --build-type=complete architecture=x86 address-model=32 stage --debug-configuration I added the MPI config in boost_1_48_0\tools\build\v2\user-config.jam as below: using mpi : "C:/Program Files/OpenMPI_v1.5.4-win32/bin/mpic++.exe" ; Could anyone help on this?
