Problem with job submission to LXBATCH

[mibauer (Michael Bauer)]

Hi,
approx. 2 weeks ago I set up lxflu_submit according to the explanation and tgz file at:

Several FLUKA jobs in lxplus

Dear FLUKA expert I have installed fluka on lxplus following the instruction : and it works fine, I compared the output with the ones from my local machine and I got the same. However, I would like to submit several jobs to lxplus, let say I would like to submit job1.inp job2.inp job3.inp I know that I have to write a script in order to do that, so could you give me and advice about how to write this script or even better do you have an example of this script. As far as I know lxplus us…

It worked fine and I ran several jobs successfully.
But since yesterday there is is problem: When I enter the command on lxplus like:

lxflu_submit example.inp -c 1 -n 1 -p 100 -j “espresso” -q --start

the command lxflu_submit is no longer found from my bash.
error message:
-bash: lxflu_submit: command not found

I redid all the steps from the README file in tgz but it still does not work.

Can you help?

Thanks,
Michael

Hi Michael,

could you post the output of echo $PATH ?

Kind regards,

Markus

(You can download the most recent version of the lxflu scripts here lxflu.tgz (40.1 KB) which include a number of changes. Check the readme file.)

Hi Markus,

thanks for the help and sorry for my late reply.
echo $PATH gives me:

/cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/releases/gcc/9.2.0-afc57/x86_64-centos7/bin:/cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/releases/binutils/2.30-e5b21/x86_64-centos7/bin:/afs/cern.ch/atlas/scripts:/usr/sue/bin:/usr/lib64/qt-3.3/bin:/usr/condabin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/opt/puppetlabs/bin:/afs/cern.ch/work/m/mibauer/private/pointWSig/run_on_condor/lxflu::/afs/cern.ch/work/m/mibauer/private/pointWSig/pathtofluka/fluka4-3.0.a2/bin

In my source file I have the following definitions:

export FLUPRO=/afs/cern.ch/work/m/mibauer/private/pointWSig/pathtofluka/fluka4-3.0.a2
export PYTHONPATH=/afs/cern.ch/work/m/mibauer/private/pointWSig/run_on_condor/lxflu:$PYTHONPATH
export PATH=$PATH:$PYTHONPATH
export PATH=$PATH:$FLUPRO/bin

as far as I can tell these go along with the description from the most recent version.

Thanks,
Michael

OK,

can you check that the lxflu_submit file is placed under this path ?

@mibauer

/afs/cern.ch/work/m/mibauer/private/pointWSig/run_on_condor/lxflu

Cheers,

Thanks Markus,

indeed, that’s the iusse.
I moved the file from there at one point and didn’t think about changing the path variable.

Excuse me for taking your time for such a trivial issue.

Thanks again,
Michael
