mpiexec running liggghts in Win7

Submitted by rahulsoni on Tue, 06/10/2014 - 16:22

Hi I have installed mpich2 with process outlined below. LIGGGHTS in installed by following the process outlined in https://github.com/CFDEMproject/LIGGGHTS-PUBLIC/wiki/Installing-LIGGGHTS...

.bashrc configuration
alias liggghts='"/cygdrive/c/Program Files/MPICH2/bin/lmp_fedora"' (as per suggestion copied lmp_fedora to mention dir. Individually this is also working)
alias mpirun=/cygdrive/c/cygwin/bin/mpirun
alias mpiexec='"/cygdrive/c/Program Files/MPICH2/bin/mpiexec"'
alias smpd='"/cygdrive/c/Program Files/MPICH2/bin/smpd"'
export WM_NCOMPPROCS=2

MPICH2 installation
Uninstall previous version of MPICH2
Open an admin command prompt by right-clicking on the command prompt icon and selecting "run as administrator"
Run "msiexec /i mpich2-1.3.2p1-win-ia32.msi" from the admin command prompt to install MPICH2
During installation select that MPICH2 be installed for "Everyone" for all users.
Run wmpiconfig and store username/password. EDIT: Use your REAL windows login name and password.
Add "C:\Program Files\MPICH2\bin" to system Path and EDIT: no need to reboot
Check smpd using 'smpd -status'. it should return 'smpd running on $hostname$'
To test execution environment, go to the directory $MPICHROOT\examples and run cpi.exe using: 'mpiexec -n 4 cpi' (this is also working for me)

Everything is working fine individually. LIGGGHTS is able to simulate. mpiexec is working. smpd -status returns that service is running.
But I am trying every other possibility to run liggghts with something like below. But no luck...
mpiexec -n 2 liggghts -in in.packing
mpiexec -n 2 /cygdrive/c/LIGGGHTS-PUBLIC/src/lmp_fedora -in /cygdrive/c/LIGGGHTS-PUBLIC/examples/LIGGGHTS/TutorialsPublic/packing/in.packing
and every other possibility.

Can anyone give any clue to resolve the issue.
