[Condor-users] condor-g matchmaking "cannot expand $gatekeeper_url"

["Maryam Khademi" <m.khademi@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I am trying to use matchmaking with Condor-g. I generate the required class-ads for my grid sites and update condor through putting the condor_advertise cmd on cron. After submitting the job, it complains about not being able to expand $gatekeeper_url. To me, the reasons could be:

• condor collector is not receiving the ads
• that is a parsing error, which condor cannot read the ad
  

condor version: 6.8.0
globus-version: 4.0.4

sample grid-site ad: 

MyType = "Machine"
TargetType = "Job"
Name = "PDCBL"
gatekeeper_url = "pdcbl.ntu.edu.sg/jobmanager-condor"
Rank = 0.000000
CurrentRank = 0.000000
WantAdRevaluate = True
UpdateSequenceNumber = 2008112512381
CurMatches = 0

sample job:

executable=A.sh
universe=globus
globusscheduler=$$(gatekeeper_url)
log=A.log
notification=never
transfer_output_files=A.out
error=A.err
WhenToTransferOutput=ALWAYS

queue


I tried it with :

universe=grid 
grid_resource = gt2 $$(gatekeeper_url)

but still get the same error!

please advise!
