Isn't that a great error message?  :-)

The problem is that the default 'universe' is the standard universe,
which gives you checkpointing and remote IO.  You have to re-link your
job for this to work.  Since you're submitting /bin/date, you want to
set

universe = vanilla

in your submit file.  This tells condor that you're submitting a regular
old binary.  (Which makes one wonder why this isn't the default...)
