is the following paragraph in the users'guide relevant to your case?
-----------------------------------------------------------
\paragraph{Why are codes in PP/ complaining that they do not
find some files?}

For Linux PC clusters in parallel execution: in at least some
versions of MPICH, the current directory is set to the directory where
the \emph{executable code} resides, instead of being set to the
directory where the code is executed.
This MPICH weirdness may cause unexpected failures in some
postprocessing codes that expect a data file in the current directory.
Workaround: use symbolic links, or copy the executable to the current
directory.
