I notice from the output that your compiler claims "limits.h" is missing. Possibly there's something wrong with your icc setup? Maybe you should try using gcc / gfortran instead.

Dear Frank,

I added the alias pattern for the computing nodes and now ETK can detect the cluster (checked by asking "whoami") during the batch queuing. I'll get in touch with the admins to include 'patch'.

However, the problem still persists, having assured that the correct machine file and option list are being used during the compilation.

I might be wrong, but setup-silent will not use your machine file which
contains all the compiler flags, but will setup something "from scratch"
instead. According to the logs, this will be, e.g., in

/home/shamims.iiserb/ET_debug/Cactus/repos/simfactory2/mdb/machines/cn139.iitr.ac.in.ini

My guess would be that this misses the compiler flags necessary to have
M_PI defined. The best way to get this working might be to let
simfactory also detect the cluster configuration on the compute nodes
(where you compile), such that setup-silent is not needed, but instead
the correct cluster configuration is found and used automatically. In
order to do that, look at examples of 'aliaspattern' in the mdb/machines
directory. An alternative would be to tell simfactory specifically that
you want to use your machine configuration file.

As a side-note: I noticed the command 'patch' is missing too. This is a
tool so common that it should be installed everywhere. Your admin is
probably the best person to ask for advise here. It should not be too
hard to install yourself, but that should not be necessary either,
especially when you are told to compile on compute nodes.

Frank
