Igor, Thanks for reporting your "make check" failures before proceeding to use BLCR. To answer your last question first: Yes, it should be safe to use BLCR with OpenMPI and Torque on your system. Before today I had not used MC. However, when I tried it I was able to reproduce your problem on the first try, using a system that has not shown any BLCR test failures in the past. So, to answer your first question: this *does* appear to be "normal" behavior, or at least this is not something specific to your environment. Running inside MC I saw the following failures and no others: > Detected 3 failures in ./cs_enter_leave.st: > #ST_ALARM:60 > !!! Alarm clock expired > !!! Missing final DONE > !!! Test killed unexpectedly by signal 9 > FAIL: cs_enter_leave.st > Detected 3 failures in ./cs_enter_leave2.st: > #ST_ALARM:60 > !!! Alarm clock expired > !!! Missing final DONE > !!! Test killed unexpectedly by signal 9 > FAIL: cs_enter_leave2.st > Detected 3 failures in ./cr_tryenter_cs.st: > #ST_ALARM:60 > !!! Alarm clock expired > !!! Missing final DONE > !!! Test killed unexpectedly by signal 9 > FAIL: cr_tryenter_cs.st These three tests are written very similarly and while I don't know the source of the problem yet, it is almost certainly the same cause for all three. I hope to understand (and then resolve) the root cause, but for now you are safe ignoring this problem (as long as the tests all pass when run under bash). Could you please confirm that you see only these three tests fail? -Paul Igor Volovichev wrote: > I faced strange problem: when I do "make check" under Midnight Commander > some test fail (e.g. sc_enter_leave*, etc.).
