Re: [Condor-users] dll trouble

Pat,

 

I had a similar problem and although there are numerous workarounds I found that executing a batch file in your submit script, e.g. executable = script.bat, and have the script set the variables you need to set for the execution environment.  This can be done via the submit script too I think.

 

Either way, I set the PATH variable manually in the batch file and any associated parameters e.g.

 

SET PATH=some_dir;%PATH%

 

Executable.exe %1 %2 etc…

Hello,

 

I’ve noticed in the manual that some Windows apps have trouble linking to their dll’s. So, I’ve followed the advice of the manual and passed the dll along with the executable in Condor and also put “getenv = true” in the submit file to create a path. And, things still fail because the dll cannot be loaded. If I copy the execute directory on the machine and then run it myself, all is fine. New ideas? Should I set the path to the execute directory? The null path should force it to look only in the local directory, right? That doesn’t work either.

 

Cheers,

Pat
