mpicc: command not found using nrnivmodl

Hello-
I have Release 6.1.1 (1894) on my MacBook Pro, and I compiled it with MPI. When I try to compile my mod files by invoking nrnivmodl I get this error:

/Applications/NEURON-6.1/nrn/share/nrn/libtool: line 1: mpicc: command not found
make: *** [fsi_AMPA.lo] Error 1

Any idea what this could be?
Thanks!

The problem was that the mpi directory was not properly added to my path for some reason - i fixed it by adding the directory to my path in the .bash_login file in my home directory. For me, it looked like this:

export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/Applications/mpi/bin:$PATH"
