[HTCondor-users] Unattended install of HTCondor 8.0.5 on Windows: end-of-line issues in condor_config...

[Stub <spamrefuse@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I do the unattended install, according to the HTCondor manual; something like this:

set MSI="condor-8.0.5-212140-Windows-x86.msi"

set ARGS=

set ARGS=NEWPOOL="N"

set ARGS=%ARGS% POOLNAME="Library"

set ARGS=%ARGS% RUNJOBS="C"

set ARGS=%ARGS% VACATEJOBS="Y"

set ARGS=%ARGS% SUBMITJOBS="N"

set ARGS=%ARGS% CONDOREMAIL=""

set ARGS=%ARGS% SMTPSERVER=""

set ARGS=%ARGS% HOSTALLOWREAD="215.145.0.0/16"

set ARGS=%ARGS% HOSTALLOWWRITE="215.145.0.0/16"

.....[etc. etc.]

msiexec /qn /norestart /l*v condor-install-log.txt /i %MSI% %ARGS%

Then I see in the file C:\condor\condor_config  things like this:

ALLOW_READ=215.145.0.0/16#ALLOW_READ = *.your.domain, *.cs.wisc.edu

and

ALLOW_WRITE=215.145.0.0/16#ALLOW_WRITE = *.your.domain, your-friend's-machine.other.domain

I guess there is a wrong conversion between DOS and Unix line termination.

Can this have any nasty side-effects?
