[Condor-users] Is setting "POOL_HISTORY_DIR = $(HISTORY)" bad for condor_history?

[Rob <spamrefuse@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,


My condor_history command is producing lots of error messages:


$ condor_version
$CondorVersion: 7.7.5 Mar 07 2012 $
$CondorPlatform: X86_64-Fedora_16 $
$ condor_history
 ID      OWNER            SUBMITTED     RUN_TIME ST   COMPLETED CMD            
*** Warning: Bad history file; skipping malformed ad(s)
*** Warning: Bad history file; skipping malformed ad(s)
*** Warning: Bad history file; skipping malformed ad(s)
[...zip....a zillion more of these lines!!!!....]

I thought I let the view_client module share the history folder by setting:
POOL_HISTORY_DIR = $(HISTORY)


Is that the reason for condor_history going bezerk?
If so, why is that?

Thanks.
Rob.
