[Condor-users] only runs when I am logged on

[Dave STREET <davey_street@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

OK i thought I had this sorted, but jobs will only run correctly when I am loged on to the machine, as soon as I log of all jobs get put in the hold state, and looking through the logs I see a error

07 (101.001.000) 04/18 00:41:26 Shadow exception!

        Error from slot2@*************.com: STARTER at 127.0.1.1 failed to send file(s) to <127.0.1.1:52928>; SHADOW

at 127.0.1.1 failed to write to file /home/aaron/condor/maths/_condor_stderr: (errno 2) No such file or directory

        1030068  -  Run Bytes Sent By Job

        1416  -  Run Bytes Received By Job

now I assume that this is becasue condor is not currently running as root so can't see the directory.. 

I am still new to linux, but how do I get condor to run as root? I thought I could use sudo but apparently not, do i need to log in as root and start condor from there? 

I also see that when i submit a job, it runs as my user account, 

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND

22191 aaron     30  10  2204  696  516 R   61  0.1   0:01.83 bc

22193 aaron     30  10  2204  700  516 R   40  0.1   0:01.22 bc

 3298 condor    20   0  8692 4124 3340 S    1  0.4   1:58.42 condor_master

20632 root      20   0  3820 1640  988 S    0  0.2   0:00.22 condor_pr

bc is the submitted job running, 

i expected this to be run as condor user or root? 

Thank you 

Aaron
