Hi *, We got a strange problem with our ResourceBroker. All submitted jobs got hung up in the state Current Status: Ready Status Reason: unavailable last night. We saw that the JobController was partly not running. It seemed CondorG was down. restarting the service via /etc/init.d/edg-wl-jc restart lead to error messages in the log file: /var/edgwl/jobcontrol/log/events.log ------------------------------------ ... 12 Nov, 11:58:03 -F- ControllerLoop::run(): Got an unhandled standard exception !!! 12 Nov, 11:58:03 -F- ControllerLoop::run(): Namely: "Syntax error on file "/var/edgwl/jobcontrol/queue.fl" (_file_sequence_t::erasePointer(...)[44])" ... The only cure to this problem was to move away /var/edgwl/jobcontrol/queue.fl Now the JobController comes up without error messages. Nevertheless we are not sure if everything is okay again. Any idea? Thanx Andreas ++++++++++++++++++ Andreas Gellrich DESY IT ++++++++++++++++++
