[Wien] parallel calculation stops waiting for a pass in ssh root at localhost

[Ricardo Faccio]

Dear Wien users

I have some problems in using parallelization over kpoints in the latest release of WIEN2k. It is important to mention that I had no troubles in the past with my settings.

In particular I am working with dual-core pc desktops, and one Quad-core machines, individually. For instance, in a simple parallel setup, the typical test_case, I found this:

---------

root at rfaccio:/home/rfaccio/calculo/wien2k/test_case# x lapw1 -c -up -p

starting parallel lapw1 at Thu Oct  1 23:32:56 UYT 2009

->  starting parallel LAPW1 jobs at Thu Oct  1 23:32:56 UYT 2009

running LAPW1 in parallel mode (using .machines)

2 number_of_parallel_jobs

[1] 30629

root at localhost's password:

---------

As you can see the code keeps waiting for my password. It never happened before, and it seems to have no relationship with the shared memory setup because I used the same flags than in previous release versions.

I use this .machine file:

1:localhost

1:localhost

granularity:1

extrafine:1

I would like to know if there exist an easy way to fix it, because I would like to avoid any important modification in my security pc's stuff.

Is it a new modification? or a strictly problem of the user (me!)

Thanks in advance

Ricardo
