[Condor-users] uid issues with condor master

["Dheepak R. A." <dheepak_ra@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

We have Condor installed over Xen 3.0 user domain which uses a file system from FC4

Condor version downloaded was condor-6.6.10-linux-x86-glibc23.tar.gz

 

When we run it as non root account then it works fine.

 

However when we start it as root after setting CONDOR_IDS to point to condor then it fails. Please find the log below:
