Re: [Condor-users] Jobs held

[Simon David Hammond <sdh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Simon,

We have also had this problem but we run our Condor *not* using the root 
user - we run it in its under its own user. Hence when it tries to access 
or write the out/log/condor.log etc it needs permissions.

If you are using root you can probably stop reading now since I doubt it 
applies.

We either set the files to be writable for all using chmod (not 
recommended) or use ACLs to grant the Condor username permission to 
write/access the files. You can do this using setfacl and getfacl.

Hope this helps you.
