Re: [Condor-users] Hard-coded paths in Condor binaries?

[Maxim kovgan <maxim.kvg@xxxxxxxxx>]

We are using this setup:

LOCAL_DIR=/some/nice/path/condor

LOCK=$(LOCAL_DIR)/lock
LOG=$(LOCAL_DIR)/log
SPOOL=$(LOCAL_DIR)/spool
EXECUTE=$(LOCAL_DIR)/execute


our condor versions vary from 6.7.xx to 6.8.6
We don't experience this problem, you're talking about.


on the "offending" machine please do as follows:

1. please paste in here the result of the following bash commands:

# for d in LOCAL_DIR LOCK LOG SPOOL EXECUTE; do condor_config_val $d; done

2. please paste your results of:

condor_config_val -config



cheers
