You need to load the openmpi environment, so if you have a 64 bit machine it should be:

module load openmpi-x86_64

Add it to your .bashrc file above where you source the openfoam environment.

You can check what module files are on your system by typing 'module avail' in a terminal.

I am running on a 32 bit, a terminal gives me:

gcc: error: unrecognized option ‘--showme:compile’
gcc: error: unrecognized option ‘--showme:link’
[antonio@Acer ~]$ module avail

dot module-cvs module-info modules null use.own

So make sure you load the openmpi environment before sourcing the openfoam environment by executing:

module load openmpi-i386

If you don't want to type that every time you open a new terminal, you can add it to your .bashrc file just above where you have:

source /opt/OpenFOAM-2.1.0/etc/bashrc

added to my bashrc file and now errors are not present any more.

I suggest to include in installation instructions for Fedora.

Tnx for help

The website installation instructions have been amended, I hope they are clearer now.

Thanks for the report.
