Re: [Condor-users] Batch Script Errors

["Smith, Herb" <herb.smith@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Ben,

All execute nodes are XP (actually in this case for my development, there is only one node).  The echo commands that don't work are the last two:

@echo %fileNum%
@echo %outputName%

All I get is the response:  ECHO is OFF, rather than the actual variable value that I was after.  This works fine when I run the script at the command line.  The other ECHO commands correctly give the variable value.

I'm only transferring one input file with each executable, however, when I generate a Monte Carlo simulation I may have up to several hundred input files which will be numbered 0.in, 1.in, 2.in, ...etc.  The script will not know in advance which one it is running with at the time, so the loop was a device I was using to have the thing just look for whatever was there with a .in file type and to capture the particular file number.

Thanks,
Herb

Hi Herb:

Which of the echo command does not work?  Are all the execute nodes running XP? Also, there is no need for the loop if you are only transferring one of the input files with each job (unless that was unintentional).

Two of the echo commands don't work and it says that one of my Rename commands is not correct (not the correct syntax).
