[Gate-users] problem: running gate on a cluster

[Parisa Khateri]

Dear Andreas,

Thank you, sure! I used exactly the same condor script which is provided by gate in cluster_tools directory.  The content of the macro file is as follows:


# +-------------------------------+ #

# +-------------------------------+ #

Hi Parisa,

can you add your "my_macro.mac" and condor script, to the mailing list? otherwise it is almost impossible to look for the error.

best,

Dear Gate developers and Gate users,

I am new to Gate and am trying to run gate on a cluster but I can't get any actors as output. The .Gate folder is empty.

When I run:
gjs -numberofsplits 2 -clusterplatform condor -condorscript /path-to-gate/Gate/cluster_tools/jobsplitter/script/condor.script path-to-macro/my_macro.mac

I get:
.
.
.
Summary of all actors:
  ~~~
***** TimeStart - TimeStop seems to be 0 ?

I really appreciate if anyone can help me to solve this problem. I am not sure where to look to solve the problem, if the problem is with installation of gjs or something is wrong with my macro file?
I used this macro without clustering and it works properly.

Kind regards,
Parisa
