Note that the PATH variable contains the location of mpiexec
Remarks:
1. code is c++. it runs ok out of debugger when launched by hand, e.g. mpiexec -n xxx test_mpi.exe. here we launch from ....\Test_MPI\x64\debug
2. the return code displayed is not coming from the application
3. tinkering with debugger properties does not seem to help
4. there is a breakpoint in the first line of the code but we do not reach it
5. running with multiple processes (e.g. localhost/2) duplicates the first line of the error message about target processes
6. visual studio is being run as administrator
7. registry has been editted to set DisableUNCCheck to 1 for the command window
8. code was built as 64 bit debug version
This feels like a configuration problem but the error returns are cryptic. has anyone figured this one out before?
