Re: [Condor-users] Jobs marked running but running time stay at zero

[Todd Tannenbaum <tannenba@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Re the below -

Precisely what do you mean by "the running time remains at zero" ?
What are you looking at? Condor_q ?

Perhaps the jobs are starting and then immediately exiting, and then being started again.  The most common cause for this is if the job's specified initial working directory no longer exists, or if some file specified as stdin or transfer_input_files is missing.  In the most recent versions of Condor many errors like this will result in the job being placed on hold, but previously Condor could exhibit behavior like you describe below. 

Maybe grep for ERROR in the submit machine's ShadowLog ?

Hope this helps...

A perhaps superfluous remark, but is the disk full?
