Please, note: when one uses shared filesystems (in my case it was NFS),
he can face some symbolic links (I don't remember the details, but some
file in the gass cache was the symlink) and Torque will not let you copy
the file due to the bug in the usecp handling code.
This was fixed in the Torque's r2099 from 2008-04-21 21:45:34. I can't
quicky determine what release or snap version was first to have this bug
fixed -- Torque people does not use SVN tags. If you have the sources
for your Torque -- you can determine it using the following command:
-----
$ grep 'transforming path' src/resmom/requests.c
"too long string when transforming path '%s' to '%s%s'\n",
-----
It should yeild the mentioned result.
Thread started at
http://www.supercluster.org/pipermail/torquedev/2008-April/001029.html
can be of interest. Fourth patch handles the problem and has some
explanations inside.
Though, this could not be really related to the current issue.
