Re: [HTCondor-users] Email Error notication

[Uchenna Ojiaku - NOAA Affiliate <uchenna.ojiaku@xxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

ÂÂÂÂ I thought I'd take the liberty to explain this a bit further.

ÂÂÂÂ I've encountered an issue with having a generated error email notification sent to my email account after there is an error with my jobs. I understand that if the job completes I receive an email notification if I specified "complete" or "always" in my submit file.

ÂÂÂÂ When I specify complete or always, I received an automated email about the job being complete. "condor_history" also lists jobs as either complete or removed.

In the command reference manual it states this concerning error email notification:
"If defined by Error, the owner will only be notified if the job terminates abnormally, or if the job is placed on hold because of a failure, and not by user request".

I've ran multiple jobs, in this job below the log file returned a non-zero value yet the job was complete. How do I get an error email notification when there is an "error' with the job, i.e. a non-zero value?

Hello,

I've set my email notification. But when there's an error in the log file from a job I don't get the email. I only get emails when the job completes and when the notification is set to "complete" or "always" in the submit file. I don't get an error email notification when I set it to "error". How can I fix this issue?
