Hello Maria,

if by update you mean an update of the OS (to Mojave) or the package
manager (Homebrew, Macports) then most likely the update made you MPI
stack unusable.

I would try the following:

1. if you updated the OS to Mojave then quite likely you will have to
reinstall the package manager and all packages
(https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/85480/how-should-i-fix-my-homebrew-installation-after-upgrading-os-x)
though if you are lucky a "brew upgrade" may do the trick

2. check the output of the commands the Cactus tried ie:
usr/local/bin/mpic++ -compile_info and /usr/local/bin/mpic++ --showme
to see what kind of error is produced. Likely you have to re-install
the MPI package from your package manager (same as point 1. really).

Yours,
Roland
