ERROR: Architecture is not defined. Accepted values: ia32, intel64

[sharma__animesh]

Dear Experts,

I have recently downloaded and installed parallel_studio_xe_2018_update1_cluster_edition for a single user on my linux environment (Debian 9.1). The installation was successful however when i try to set variables in the command line with:

 $HOME/intel/bin/iccvars.sh intel64

I get the following error:

Syntax: source daalvars.sh <arch>
Where <arch> is one of:
  ia32      - setup environment for IA-32 architecture
  intel64   - setup environment for Intel(R) 64 architecture

If the arguments to the sourced script are ignored (consult docs for
your shell) the alternative way to specify target is environment
variables COMPILERVARS_ARCHITECTURE or DAALVARS_ARCHITECTURE to pass
<arch> to the script.

Can you try:

$source $HOME/intel/bin/compilervars.sh intel64

Thanks,

Viet

That worked Viet, thanks :) However i am still not able to use the compiler, seems to be unable to "fork process:":

➜  openmp_samples make
Cleaning...
icc -c -O2 -std=c99 -wd3180 -qopenmp -o out/openmp_sample.o src/openmp_sample.c
icc: error #10103: can't fork process: Invalid argument
Makefile:35: recipe for target 'out/openmp_sample.o' failed
make: *** [out/openmp_sample.o] Error 1

The code it from openmp samples from intel.

Any suggestions to move forward will be very much appreciated :)

Can you see if it works on "helloworld.c"?

$icc -O2 helloworld.c -c -o helloworld.o

[sharma__animesh]

It is the same error:

icc -O2 helloworld.c -c -o helloworld.o
icc: error #10103: can't fork process: Invalid argument

turns out that simple icc invokation has same issue:

icc
icc: error #10103: can't fork process: Invalid argument

[Viet_H_Intel]

I don't know what happened. You could try "$strace -f icc -O2 helloworld.c -c >& strace.txt to see why you get "Invalid argument"

[sharma__animesh]

It says (attached full report):

execve("/home/animeshs/intel/compilers_and_libraries_2018.1.163/linux/bin/intel64/icc", ["icc", "-O2", "helloworld.c", "-c"], [/* 40 vars */]) = 0
brk(NULL)                               = 0xdf8000
access("/etc/ld.so.nohwcap", F_OK)      = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

could it be that installation has some prereqs which are not there?

Have you installed GCC? ICC uses the GNU C/C++ linker/librarian.

Hello, if you want to move forward try to use bash:)

It looks that you use dash. In theory icc should work under dash but as far as I remember there should be some additional steps to setup bash compatible-environment to dash-compatible environment.

Yes Jim, there is GCC in the system and it works:

animeshs@DMED7596:~/ray$ gcc helloworld.c
animeshs@DMED7596:~/ray$ ./a.out
hello

It can also compile openmpi based program https://github.com/sebhtml/ray flawlessly. It still takes a lot of time, so the reason i wanted to try out intel compiler is to check if i do get any speed advantage :)

Yes Vladimir, it is ZSH actually :) But i tried your suggestion of bash without much success:

animeshs@DMED7596:~/ray$ icc helloworld.c
icc: error #10103: can't fork process: Invalid argument

I suspect some issue with how icc is calling ld, but no idea since cpp is not what i know much of for sure...
