I was working with mpi on the older version of ubuntu and everything was fine untill I upgraded to ubuntu 22.04. When I try to compile my program using the command mpicxx -o , it gives me a long list of errors which I am pasting at the end of my message.
In a desperate search to solve the problem, I have added this: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu to my PATH but didn't work. I am new to linux and I have absolutely no clue to what I should do to make things right. I'll be more than thankful if you can help me.
The errors:
