[Openmd-users] clock skew

Vamsee,
The atom2md executable is only built if configure finds openbabel on your system. Likewise the openmd_MPI executable is only built if the MPI includes and libraries are found. Can you email us the configure line you entered and give us some more details about the system (OS/distribution, version, architecture, compilers) you are using?
You should also verify that your system has the prerequisites for OpenMD installed: http://openmd.net/?p=56
And also that you are specifying the correct locations for the external libraries and compilers you want to use: http://openmd.net/?p=83
Clock skew problems usually arise when the build directory resides on a file server that has a different clock setting than the machine doing the build. As the files are written, they get a different time stamp than the build machine was expecting, and this can lead to some strange behavior by the make system. If you can synchronize the clock on the build machine to the server (i.e. with "sudo rdate -s your.server.edu" or by using ntpd ) that will usually clear up clock skew issues in builds.
