[Condor-users] Condor job not executing

[Sameer Bahl <sameer.bahl@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

 

I have a windows executable which requires the pathname of the database directory as an argument to run and produces a text file as the output.

 

For eg the command required to run it on windows is as follows:

 

 Y:\Simtest>SIAEC-Model-V50.exe y:\Simtest

 

The directory Simtest contains all the input files required for the executable.

 

I am trying to run this on a condor pool with the following submit file;

 

universe = vanilla

environment = path=y:\Simtest      

Requirements = (Arch == "INTEL") && (OpSys == "WINNT50")

should_transfer_files = YES

WhenToTransferOutput = ON_EXIT

transfer_input_files = y:\Simtest\ProModel Airport Information.xls, y:\Simtest\ProModel Airport Location GMT.xls, y:\Simtest\ProModel Component Optimal Balance.xls ,y:\Simtest\ProModel Flights.xls, y:\Simtest\ProModel Input Parameters Ground Movements.xls, y:\Simtest\ProModel Input Parameters.xls, y:\Simtest\ProModel Model Configurations.xls, y:\Simtest\ProModel Scenarios.xls ,y:\Simtest\ProModel Service Schedule.xls

executable = y:\Simtest\SIAEC-Model-V50.exe

error = y:\Simtest\test.err

log = y:\Simtest\test.log

Arguments = y:\Simtest

Queue

 

Since the executable requires more than one input file I am specifying them with the transfer_input_files attribute. I do not know if this is the correct way to do it. all the machines in the condor pool have access to the y:\ which contains these input files.

 

The executable does not produce any output and stops after running for a little while.

 

the log file gives me the following error.

 

 

000 (080.000.000) 02/16 15:19:45 Job submitted from host: < 155.69.148.48:2706>

I am concerned about the followinf things:

1. how to specify more than one input file in the submit file.

2. how to specify the pathname of the directory which contains the input files as an argument

 

I would really appreciate if someone cud help me with this.

 

thanks,

Sameer
