Re: [Condor-users] Running jobs without 'nobody'

[Dan Bradley <dan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I don't spot anything wrong in your use of Condor's file-transfer 
mechanism.  As you have configured things, any output files that exist 
in the working directory of your job will be transferred back to 
InitialDir on the submit machine.
Does your job change its working directory so that output files are 
created somewhere else?  If so, that would explain the problem.  Condor 
expects output files to be left behind by the job in the temporary 
scratch directory created for the job by Condor.  When the job starts 
up, this will be its working directory.
