Hello, I had this problem when I tried the "existing farm" method a while ago. I didn't manage to solve it before I went on holiday, and I haven't had time to go back to it since then, but I'll tell you what I did find out in my case, just in case it helps. I did install globus-url-copy on the WN (I also tried the ssh composite route but couldn't make it work). The globus-url-copy process sat there for a long time retrying several times before giving up and resulting in the "Failure while executing jobwrapper" message. One odd thing I noticed was that the globus-url-copy process was owned by user "3000", not "gridpp000", according to "ps", even though I had added the pool accounts from the CE to /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow on the WN. Do you see anything similar, and/or does anyone know why this might be, and if it could be relevant to the problem? (The problem I spotted before that was that the wrong home directories were mounted on the WN, but you would probably have noticed that by now.)
