problem with libmpi.so.0

Hi there

i'm a newbie in linux/openfoam and i have this problem:

i installed openfoam on my notebook (opensuse 11.3 32bit) following the instructions. it seemed all to be correct and then i ran the cavity example. blockmesh, icofoam worked and paraview started but it stuck. i waited for 5 minutes but nothing happened i had no control over the machine. i pressed the off button and when i rebooted and tried to run the cavity example again i took the message by blockmesh:

blockMesh: error while loading shared libraries: libmpi.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

i checked in yast the mpi lib and found out that libmpi.so.0 exists on the system.

i tried other examples but took the same message.

can anybody help me?
