This is expected.  Your site ad doesn't contain all of the fields 
expected by condor_status when displaying the table.  Use condor_status 
-l instead.  You should be able to find an entry for your site in the 
output.

One likely cause of trouble is that your job is getting matched against 
some other machine in your pool, rather than the site ClassAd.  The 
substitution of $$(gatekeeper_url) then fails and the job stays idle.  
You can see if this is happening by looking in the Condor SchedLog.  You 
will see error messages relating to the failed substitution.

You can solve this problem by changing the requirement expressions:

In the site ClassAd:

requirements = (CurMatches < 10) && (TARGET.JobUniverse == 9)

In the job submit file:

requirements = TARGET.gatekeeper_url =!= UNDEFINED
