Re: [HTCondor-users] installing HTcondor

[Matthew T West <m.t.west@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Am curious, would folks be more comfortable with provided playbooks or recipes? I grant this isn't as distro/toolsuite agnostic as a bash script but it may more comfortably fit into people's existing automated deployment methods.

Cheers,
Matt

Thanks for your response Jaime. 

I really hope this is reconsidered in the future version. The curl and bash script idea sounds great but I its a bit risk to run something as sudo in a bash script...i understand we can inspect the code but its just a bit scary.

The condor_install command is old and no longer recommended for installing or configuring HTCondor.

For a root-based installation (when more than one user will be using HTCondor), we recommend using the Debian packages (https://htcondor.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting-htcondor/install-linux-as-root.html).

For a single-user installation, you can download the tarball release use the use the make-personal-from-tarball command (https://htcondor.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting-htcondor/install-linux-as-user.html).

I am trying to install HTcondor on Debian 12. 

I am doing this but for some reason, its not creating a local directory.

rm -rf /opt/condor/10

condor-10.9.0-1.1-x86_64_Debian12-stripped/condor_install --install --install-dir=/opt/condor/10 --local-dir=/opt/condor/10/local --type=manager,submit

Am I doing something wrong?
