Make check error : hdf5-1.8.12

Dear HDF group,

I am trying to build the hdf5-1.8.12 on a linux cluster with the following
commands-
CC=mpicc ./configure --prefix=$RLIB --with-zlib=$RLIB --with-szlib=$RLIB

when I run make after configuration, with some deprecation warnings the
make command completes successfully, but make check reflects error as
following-

ph5diff tests failed with 16 errors.

However the make install completes successfully. I am not able to
understand this error. please help me out this error.
I have installed openmpi-1.8.4 in $RLIB=/export/home/pmaharana/RLIB with
the following options-
./configure --prefix=/export/home/pmaharana/RLIB CC=icc FC=ifort F77=ifort
CXX=icpc

I am attaching the config.log file for your reference herewith.

Thanks in anticipation

Hi Dhirendra,

ph5diff tests compare output from running some erroneous tests to expected output that is stored as text files. I bet the errors you are seeing are some extra or different output that open mpi prints on termination that causes the comparison to fail. So I wouldn’t worry about it too much, and you can just skip over the failures with make -i check

To confirm that the errors you are seeing are output comparison, run the ph5diff tests manually.

May I also suggest that you upgrade to HDF5 1.8.15 then try again? You could also update open-mpi to latest too.

Thanks,
Mohamad
