Actually I don't think the MSI install will work either? Looking inside the msi file shows files,

info, manifests, etc. for Microsoft.VC90.CRT but not for Microsoft.VC90.DebugCRT

 

Cheers

Hi Dan

 

Does this windows development version need the Microsoft.VC90.DebugCRT side by side

included as well? 7.5.4 didn't and I'm now getting errors because of it when the condor service

tries to start, e.g. Event viewer shows "Dependent assembly Microsoft.VC90.DebugCRT not found"

type messages.

 

Background:

 

On our distributed condor pools all our windows execute nodes run scheduled tasks daily that check

file servers for updated versions of condor, i.e. we ONLY use the zip download and NOT the

msi installation. Our own install script copies across the unzipped folder structure, the appropriate

config files, adds registry entries, creates scheduled task, etc.

 

We're currently running production version 7.2.4 on execute nodes and 7.4.3 on submit nodes.

 

I occasionally test and try the latest development version on a few nodes for evaluation purposes.

 

Thanks.

 

Cheers

 

Greg

In the initial release of 7.5.5, Windows packages were withheld while we investigated a problem that was observed under some versions of Windows.  This problem has now been solved and we have added Condor packages for Windows to the 7.5.5 download page.

The 7.5.5 release notes contain some additional information relevant to Condor in Windows:

The contents of the Windows zip and MSI packages of Condor have changed. The lib and libexec folders no longer exist, and all contents previously within them are now in bin. condor_setup and condor_set_acls have been moved from the top level directory into bin.

The Windows MSI installer for Condor version 7.5.5 requires that all previous MSI installations of Condor be uninstalled. Before uninstalling previous versions, make backup copies of configuration files. Any settings that need to be preserved must be reapplied to the configuration of the new installation.

Cheers,
--Dan

Hello,

The Condor Team is pleased to announce the release of Condor 7.5.5.
This is a development release of Condor.

This release is primarily to improve scalability and performance.
Additionally, of note to those people who build Condor from source, we
have modernized our build system to use cmake instead of imake.  A
large number of bugs have been fixed - details are in the Version
History.

Condor 7.5.5 binaries and source code are available from our Downloads page.
