Re: [Condor-users] problem running condor_master "can't open MasterLog"

["Shiyang Zhao" <zhaoshiyang@xxxxxxxxx>]

Many thanks!!

The problem is done.

I created a 'condor' user on the Redhat, and setted the condor_IDS in the local configure file. Then ran condor_init, and condor_master worked.
Thanks again!

condor_master starts as root but then it will
switch uid to whatever uid and gid is set by CONDOR_ID's
in the configuration file.
The log directory needs to be owned by the right user.
If you run condor_init first, it will make the log
and spool and execute directories under /condor/local.my_linux
and change them to the right ownership.
