Hi Will, Please try removing the InputData section from your JDL; if InputData is specified the files have to be available at the site the job is running at, whereas if the file is listed in InputSandbox, it'll be copied from wherever it can be. (There isn't really any need to put a file in both the InputSandbox and InputData, one or the other should suffice depending on the behaviour you want). I've investigated the "FileCatalog error 1604" you saw, it wasn't caused by anything specific about your job. The File Catalogue was overloaded for around four minutes at (coincidentally) the same time you submitted your test job. I've made adjustments to some settings on the server to try and prevent this from happening again. Regards, Simon On Fri, Feb 17, 2017 at 05:08:40PM +0000, Will Furnell wrote:
Hello,
Just an update on this, unfortunately I was unable to run a job on LCG.UKI-SCOTGRID-GLASGOW.uk, I presume becuase it was using DIRAC data as an inputfile and I don't have access to a LCG.UKI-SCOTGRID-GLASGOW.uk storage element, so I tried with the site I do have a storage element for - LCG.UKI-NORTHGRID-LIV-HEP.uk (UKI-NORTHGRID-LIV-HEP-disk) but I got the following error - FileCatalog error ( 1604 : Failed to perform getReplicas from any catalog) - and was wondering what the cause could be?
I was able to get the file back on my local system fine (using dirac-dms-get-file LFN:/cernatschool.org/user/w/will.furnell/ga_testing_liv.zip).
Thank you,
Will.
