In that case we do print an error to stderr also:
fprintf(stderr, "Node %d@%s: Crash recovery file is"
" locked: %s\n", mpi_id + 1, mpi_name,
path_expand(rec_name));
error();
Line 165 is the "error()".
So now we have two questions:
1) Why was it already locked? Some half-dead process still running?
2) Why do you not see the error printed to stderr? Something with your
OpenMPI wrapper script?
