1) I need to provide paths to bin and lib folders.. both for 32 bit Intel MPI..

2) There is a mention of Intel MPI-v3.x in the manual..

The Problem::

So I checked on my system and found that it has ONLY Intel MPI- v4.1.x (32 and 64 bit both) installed... SO I added the paths to 32-bit bin and lib folders.. which were inside ..../impi/4.1.0.024/ia32/.
Did I do right?? But the problem persists giving error "Unable to open input file".. File permissions are also proper.

Please help.

Regards,
