Re: [HTCondor-users] Send commands to minicondor from outside the container

[Cole Bollig <cabollig@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Gaetan,

I have a couple of questions about your setup:

1. How are you trying to run the tools? I just want to confirm that you are trying to run a mini-condor container and use the condor tools and python bindings that exist in the container on the host machine. Or are you trying to just submit the test/prototype jobs in the mini-condor container?
2. Do you have condor installed on your local host?

Subject: [HTCondor-users] Send commands to minicondor from outside the container

 

Hi,

 

I use a htcondor/mini Docker container to test and prototype on Condor.

If I open a bash inside the container I can use the commands just fine, but what I want to do is to have access to then and the Python bindings from the host machine, or from another container.

I run the container like this:

 

docker run -it --network host --name condor --rm \

-v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \

htcondor/mini:9.0.16-el7

 

Then, I take a copy of the config file 00-minicondor, put it on the host machine and have the CONDOR_CONFIG env var to point at it.

This works fine for things like condor_q or condor_status, but when I try to use condor_submit I get the following:

 

Submitting job(s)

ERROR: Failed to connect to local queue manager

AUTHENTICATE:1003:Failed to authenticate with any method

AUTHENTICATE:1004:Failed to authenticate using SCITOKENS

AUTHENTICATE:1004:Failed to authenticate using GSI

GSI:5003:Failed to authenticate.  Globus is reporting error (851968:101).  There is probably a problem with your credentials.  (Did you run grid-proxy-init?)

AUTHENTICATE:1004:Failed to authenticate using KERBEROS

AUTHENTICATE:1004:Failed to authenticate using IDTOKENS

AUTHENTICATE:1004:Failed to authenticate using FS

 

So, I tried things like to set SEC_DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION = NEVER, SEC_DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_METHODS = CLAIMTOBE, FS, ALLOW_WRITE = * and use security:host_based.

None of these work.

 

What more can I do if even disabling authentication did not work ?

 

Thanks,

 

Gaëtan
