[Condor-users] Running compiled MATLAB executables on Condor

["Shaun J. O'Callaghan" <Shaun.OCallaghan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

 

I wish to run MATLAB executables, compiled under Windows on the Condor grid.

 

I think the problem either lies in the structure of the submit file and/or the fact that the .ctf file that compiled matlab executables use is a compressed file.  I’ve tried running the executable with the arguments specified in the command line and it works fine.

 

Any thoughts on this would be great.

 

Kind Regards,

 

Shaun O’Callaghan

 

 

 

Currently my submit file looks like this:

 

submit.file

executable = compiled_executable.exe

universe = vanilla

Requirements = ((Arch == "INTEL") && ((OpSys == "WINNT52") || (OpSys == "WINNT51")))

log = log.log

when_to_transfer_output = ON_EXIT

should_transfer_files = YES

output = output.log

error = error.log

transfer_input_files = some.JPG, compiled_executable.ctf, compiled_executable.exe

 

arguements = some.JPG 10 10 10 10 10

 

queue

 

and the output of the job looks like this:

 

log.log

 

The job runs but then terminates after a few seconds with:

 

000 (054.000.000) 09/29 10:58:01 Job submitted from host: <xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1100>

005 (054.000.000) 09/29 10:58:09 Job terminated.
