Intel® Parallel Studio XE Cluster Edition fortran build error

Rushikesh_H_ · ‎03-16-2017

Hi everyone!!

I recently started using Parallel studio cluster edition on my windows 64 bit system. I am using visual studio 2015 edition for it. I am running already built fortran console application using user provided library in resources. When i try to build the project, it gives me following error:

fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'mkl_solver_lp64.lib'

I tried the option to 'use Intel Math Kernel Library' but the error still remained.

Please help.Thanks

Hi Rushikesh,

I'm afraid the application provided by your user was build with previous MKL version. As the mkl_solver_lp64.lib is not available since MKL 10.2 update 2. https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/mkl_solver_libraries_are_deprecated_libraries_since_versio...

Since version 10.2 update 2 of Intel® MKL,
all components of Direct Solver (Pardiso and DSS), Trust-Region (TR) Solver, Iterative Sparse Solver (ISS) and GNU Multiple Precision (GMP) were moved to standard MKL libraries.
So now solver ( e.g: mkl_solver_*.lib and mkl_solver_sequential*.lib libraries are empty (for backward compatibility).

Could you please check your project property page=> linker => input => Additional Dependency

and if possible, delete the mkl_solver_*.lib and rebuild.

Best Regards

Ying
