Re: [Condor-users] update with zip vs msi package

[<Greg.Hitchen@xxxxxxxx>]

We also found this Carl and now check for and install .NET 3.5 as part of our

kixstart install script. Manually looking in the \Windows\WinSxS directory and

look for the *VC90.CRT* folder to see if it's there will tell you. Our script actually

checks the registry to see if .NET 3.5 is installed.

 

Cheers

After updating .Net framework to 3.5 it started to work. It as 
something to do with msvcr90.dll. It was in condor bin dir but not in the 
windows directory. That was the  difference from the working machine and 
the non-working one.


Thanks

Hi,


In the process of updating my condor pool to 7.2.5 i have encounter a issue on some of the windows machine with condor_master failing to start. But if i use the msi package it work fine.
After a digging a bit more a found in some thread that i'm not the only one that had this problem.  It has a something to do with dll file in provide by windows.

The way i work for updating my pool is repackaging the zip file with internal tool and install that. My question is what the msi condor package do so that condor_master is working but not working with the zip file?.
Is there any dll registration, regkey ?.....

The steps taken by the automated install that you will need to do (if you are installing for the first time from the zip file) are documented here:

http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/manual/v7.2/3_2Installation.html#SECTION00425500000000000000

Some of these steps include registering the condor_master with the Windows Service Control manager, having either a system environment variable or a registry key pointing to the config file, etc.

Hope this helps,
Todd
