Re: [HTCondor-users] Change the HOME directory using wrapper script

["Bockelman, Brian" <BBockelman@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Vikrant,

It looks like condor itself is complaining that it cannot change directory to "/apps/ttech/vaggarwal".  It failed to execute the wrapper itself.

It looks "initialdir" is being set somewhere, particularly as the executable name is  /apps/ttech/vaggarwal/sleepjob/sleep.sh.

Brian

PS - what job universe are you using?
