Re: [HTCondor-users] Log messages for malformed config files?

[Thomas Hartmann <thomas.hartmann@xxxxxxx>]

Hi John,

the bug was within a variable for accounting subgroups [1] where I
forgot one closing bracket. So in principle, the config should have been
not properly closed regarding brackets??

Cheers,
  Thomas

[1]
DESYAcctSubGroup = ifThenElse(regexp("desyplt",Owner), "desyplt", \
                   ifThenElse(regexp("desyprd",Owner), "desyprd", \
                   ifThenElse(regexp("desysgm",Owner), "desysgm", \
                   ifThenElse(regexp("desyusr",Owner), "desyusr", \
                   ifThenElse(regexp("atlas",Owner) && RequestCpus > 1,
"atlas_multicore", \
                   ifThenElse(regexp("cms",Owner) && RequestCpus > 1,
"cms_multicore", \
                   ifThenElse(regexp("lhcb",Owner) && RequestCpus > 1,
"lhcb_multicore", \
                                                       "other" )))))))
