That's right, I'm not using the checkpoint-feature

Yes trapezregel.exe is a fortran-compiled executable. It runs for a few 
seconds and writes as output three files: fort.19, fort.20 and fort.21

I added these lines to the submission file and the job ran for a few 
seconds, but it did not finish.
But I found in the Shadowlog, that the error-message has changed. The 
error-message is now, that the output-file (fort.19) could not be written 
to the directory c:\condor\batch. I'm not sure, if condor tries to write 
this output-file directly to the computer, from which I started this job, 
or to the computer, on which the job is running in the moment.

I think I'll have to talk to my administrator. Somewhere must be a lock, 
which denies condor to write the output files to the harddisk.

Greetings,
Thomas
