Re: [Condor-users] New Cluster - match but reject the job for unknown reasons

[Dirk Colbry <colbrydi@xxxxxxx>]

Shahaan,

Thanks for your help.  I did some digging and as it turns out it was a
firewall problem.  The CONDOR_HOST was wide open to receive
connections but could not make any external requests.  It was very
frustrating bug to find.  I wonder if there is any way that condor
could return a better error message for this case?

Thanks again,

- Dirk
