first off,
please don't use all capitals in your subject line.
in e-mails words written in all caps are considered
that same as shouting. ... and i don't think that this
is how you want to be experienced.

this looks like a completely botched OpenMPI installation.
before even trying to compile/install/use quantum espresso,
you should first validate that you have a working MPI installation.
there are some simple MPI tests and benchmarks. i suggest
you get those to work first.
