[Condor-users] Question about Job Queue

[jhowes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Can anyone suggest why a job that finishes (I can see it running and 
then the slot becomes idle, the log and output files are created 
correctly) but it remains in the job queue with a running status (R) and 
run-time still increasing?

Also, if I remove the job manually from the queue (condor_rm Owner), 
the jobs stays in the queue but ST (status) is changed to X which the 
manual indicates means -- removed -- and the run-time stops.

Running Condor 7.6.0 on one node under WinXP.

Running the same job on another node built with Condor 7.5.6 (Win7) the 
job runs and finishes normally and disappears from the job queue as I 
would expect.

Thanks for any suggestions.
