RE: [condor-users] problem with Java execution

["Matt Hope" <Matt.Hope@xxxxxxxx>]

Where are you trying to write to... if you use the windows provided temp dir then, under condor this is not defined explicitly (I think my .net app then defaulted to the system directory - not pleasant)

java.io.tmpdir is what java thinks is the temp, dir... try writing this to console.out under condor and see what it says

fix this by putting an explicit TEMP=c:\temp in your submit environment or making sure you are referencing temp directories such as this directly...

would be nice actually if on windows condor could set the TEMP environment variable to something like %condor execute dir%\temp\ unless othwerwise specified.

ok,
Java execution problem partially solved.
your and indirectly Matt's suggestion brought me to checking user
permissions and StarterLog, and there it was, where was the problem.
StarterLog says:
----
perm::init: Lookup Account Name condor-reuse-vm1 failed (err=1332), using
Everyone
----
and there weren't any permisions specified for user Everyone, so when Condor
used user Everyone, it didn't have permission to acces java.exe and jvm.cfg.
(I installed Condor, not as an administrator, but as user which is in
Administrators group, but that shouldn't make any difference.)

I set read permission for Everyone on C drive and write on temp directory
and when I run my script which calls java.exe, it executes ok now.

However, Condor still doesn't detect that I have java installed on master
machine. What is the test, that it startd carries out to find if Java is
installed or not ? If it tries to write anything to disk, it fails, as on my
computer, Everyone has write permission only in temp directory.

BTW: I wouldn't use MS java either. When you install JRE 1.4 it cunningly
puts copy of java.exe to c:\winnt\system32\.
