Error writing to RT CONFIG.

when running the jobs
Error writing to RT STATUS.

I made some changes in the existing Job sequencer , when i run the sequencer , iam getting the following warning
code=-99 [General repository interface 'other error']

Please help me to solve this issue

Thanks

Can you create a new dummy job and compile it? If not, then you have an error in the RT_nnn files. If it is only for the old 4.x jobs that have been imported then it might be some other issue. Can you do a "save as" another name and compile the job? If yes, you have a UNIX permissions issue on the files.

If you do an exact search on chmod you will find several posts on how to fix this. The most complete is viewtopic.php?t=95616&highlight=chgrp+chmod

check UNIX access rights on the RT_STATUS4 and RT_LOG4 files as I mentioned earlier. Does your user have write permission?

Hi

It is the user issue. Now I am able to run the jobs.

Thanks for your help

It's probably a good idea to put the command umask 002 into your dsenv script.

Please chek on the permissions on and inner files of RT_STATUS**

The inner files on this RT_STATUS** did not have 775 permissions as the folders are owned by other user ID

Ensure that the files in that rt_status / log / etc have the correct dstage group as opposed to the primary group of the orriginal user who created those files.

I'm hoping it's all dstage (or your site equivalent) but I have seen instances where it was not.

Yup, what on other boards we would call a "thread necro".
