Re: [HTCondor-users] ULOG_RD_ERROR while parsing log with JobEventLog

[Stefano Belforte <stefano.belforte@xxxxxxx>]

Hi ToddM
may I assume that this will go away in HTCondor 24 ? I.e. no matter
what some application puts in a classAd (newlines are accepted there)
the user log will and the JEL objects will have an agreement on
how to deal with them ?
Anyhow if you can point to the issue on your side we can
maybe discuss solutions there, since the newlines here
came from glideInWMS and I can't say if they are willing
to change or not, in case.

Thanks
Stefano
