Re: [Condor-users] Args not found error

[Ryan Garver <rgarver@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

In fact I submitted from a 6.7.14 schedd to a 6.7.14 startd.  This did
originate however from a Condor-C schedd running 6.7.18.  The job file I
used is:

universe = grid
executable = pi-compute
arguments= 5000000
output = out.$(Process)
log = log.$(Process)

# Condor
grid_resource = $$(Resource)
queue 1
