Re: [HTCondor-users] HTCondor Command Line Installation

[daniel popu <dpopu@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

 

I tried to reproduce this morning the behavior on my computer so I can have a look in the installer log. Couldn't do it.

 

I hope one of the 60 computers on which I will update from Condor 8.0.2 to 8.0.5 will show the same error.

 

I am calling the installer .bat file with only one parameter, the location for installation.

 

Could be linked to some restrictions from the system ( Windows 7 ) but from yesterday nothing was changed, at least not something that I know about it.

 

All the best,

Daniel

We have not made any substantive changes to the installer for 8.0.5.
We did remove some obsolete code - The HDFS config wasn't actually doing
anything useful, so we removed that page.

Your bat file works just fine on my machine. although I did change it so
that the condor install location was set in the batch file rather than being
passed as an argument before I ran it.

    set ARGS=%ARGS% INSTALLDIR=C:\Condor

instead of

    set ARGS=%ARGS% INSTALLDIR=%1

I have to wonder if something you passed as an argument to the batch file
is the reason for the error messages. 

was there any clue in condor-install-log.txt ?

Hi,

 

Yes it is the installer.

 

Shortly the bat file looks like below:

 

*********************************************

@echo on
set ARGS=
set ARGS=NEWPOOL="N"

....

set ARGS=%ARGS% POOLHOSTNAME="$(IP_ADDRESS)"
.....

 

msiexec /norestart /qb /l* condor-install-log.txt /i "condor-8.0.5-212140-Windows-x86.msi" %ARGS%
