[HTCondor-users] basic configuration question #2

[Hugh Jennings <hugh@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I have installed HT Condor on a windows machine to access a 2 system test cluster.  If I execute condor_status from the windows machine I get a predictable result

H:\condor\bin>condor_status

but if I try to submit a simple job file such as:

executable     = /bin/ls          

universe       = vanilla                   

input          = /proc/cpuinfo                

output         = loop.out                

error          = loop.error             

log            = loop.log    

queue 150

I get an error message

H:\condor\bin>condor_submit ..\..\junk\simple_submit.txt

Submitting job(s)

ERROR: Executable file /bin/ls does not exist

H:\condor\bin>

During the installation on Windows I chose the "Do not run jobs on this machine" option.  I was expecting I could just submit jobs to the cluster.  Why is it looking for a version of the binary on the local (I assume) Windows machine?
