  • Additional Details:No issues found during EGI's Software Provisioning
  • Installation Notes:
  • Known Issues:
    • before using lcg-* commands users must export CSEC_NOTHREAD:

emi.apel.sl5.x86_64

  • Additional Details:No issues found during EGI's Software Provisioning

  • Known Issues:
    • Problems publishing data to central apel server:
    • GGUS ticket: https://ggus.eu/ws/ticket_info.php?ticket=71814

LCG_LOCATION=/usr
    • In a fresh install mysql server must be installed before yaim configuration.
    • In a fresh install /etc/cron.monthly/create-default-dirs-DPM.sh MUST be executed after yaim configuration.
    • SL 5.6 uses user and group ids which cause conflicts with those in /opt/glite/yaim/examples/edgusers.conf (e. g. group avahi-autoipd:x:156: conflicts with group infosys ):

      • the workaround proposed for the AUP problem is to update the table.
mysql> select * from aup_version;
