[HTCondor-users] Problem reading Excel when running an application on many machines using HTCondor



Dear,

 I have the following issue concerning the use of excel through condor.
 We use General Algebraic Modelling System (GAMS) and we run it in many machines. In GAMS we write mathematical models reading input data from excel and generating output again in excel format. From inside GAMS model we read several excel files containing input data. When we try to run our GAMS models using HTCondor on many machines we get the following error when trying to read the excel files
"
Cannot create an instance of Excel: Error = Server execution failed, ProgID: "Excel.Application"
Check that Excel is installed correctly.
In case you use the "Click-to-Run" version of Excel, uninstall
this version and install the regular version.
**** Problem opening Excel: Cannot create an instance of Excel: Error = Server execution failed, ProgID: "Excel.Application"
"
The Excel application is installed, in every machine that we use, as standalone application

Do you have any clue about the issue?

Thank you a lot in advance for your help.

Best ,
Nikos
