[HTCondor-users] Syntax error in Job_router_entries

[Carles Acosta <cacosta@xxxxxx>]

Dear all,

We are installing a new HTCondor-CE (3.0.1-1) in CentOs7 with HTCondor version 8.6.5.

We cannot start the condor-ce service, it fails with the next error:

Aug 28 17:21:28 ce14.pic.es condor_ce_startup[461853]: ERROR: Could not read JOB_ROUTER_ENTRIES in the HTCondor CE configuration. Please verify syntax correctness

After some trial and error checking, it seems that this is the problematic line:

set_LivAcctSubGroup = strcat(regexps("([A-Za-z0-9]+[A-Za-z])\\d+", Owner, "\\1"),ifThenElse(RequestCpus > 1,"_mcore","_score"));\

The same line works perfectly fine with our other HTCondor-CE 2.1.2... Is there any change regarding the syntax check in new HTCondor-CE versions?

Thank you in advance.

Best regards,

Carles
