<div dir="ltr">Hi Rainer,<div><br></div><div>Thanks for your response. When you brought up the tmp directory, I realized that there must be an issue with the tmp on my Mac because I also had experienced problems with attaching documents to my email. I did reboot the computer but that didn't help so I went ahead and made the tmp directory in root. I could get the macports "sudo make install" to work and then I ran "sudo port -d self update" which was executed successfully. However, when I tried to grab python 2.7 using macports, I ran into the following issue:</div><div><br></div><div><p style="margin:0px;font-size:11px;font-family:Menlo">hawkeye:/ srazavi$ sudo port install cmake boost +python27 python_select openmpi-default</p>

</span>It looks the installation is unable to create temporary files.<br>
Maybe $TMPDIR points to a non-existent path?<br>
<br>
Reboot your machine. That should reset the temporary directory.<br>
