MPI registration failed - An Attempt Was Made to Access a Socket in a Way Forbidden

[Johan02]

Hi Everyone,

I had been using a program that utilizes multiple processors to run a simulation. When trying to run the former simulation, I am prompted to provide my user credentials. However I am met with an MPI registration/socket error  after entering them, seen in image 1.

I opened the command prompt as admin and used the code:

mpiexec -register

 to register and then mpiexec -validate to check, but was still met with the MPI registration/socket error in image 2. I would appreciate any assistance

regards,
Johan

Hi Varsha,

Apologies for the delayed response. I will provide details of my pc soon.

I ended up installing windows 10, then reinstalling the program with admin rights. It seemed to have worked and resolved the issue
