[sharp-discuss] Problem with SHARP config.

Paul,
I cold think of several reasons:
1. you configured several MASTERs (via the newmachine command) but not
all have been set-up for you (with the useSHARP script)
2. permission problems: is the httpd running under an account that is
in the same or a different UNIX group?
3. various links wrong (can happen when using automounter and/or
different mount points on different machines).
4. You should have (in your sharpfiles directory) something like
sharpfiles/logfiles/
logfiles.machine1 -> /mnt/machine1/paul/logfiles
logfiles.machine2 -> /mnt/machine2/paul/logfiles
When running the useSHARP command you are asked to give 'local
logfiles' directories for each MASTER. Make sure you don't answer
any of these
/home/paul/sharpfiles/logfiles
/home/paul/sharpfiles/logfiles.machine1
since these are used internally by SHARP. If you don't have any
large, non-scratch local disks on each MASTER machine you could
answer e.g.
/home/paul/sharpfiles/logfiles_local
for each MASTER machine and all your o/p directories will be in
there.
5. in your ~/sharpfiles/logfiles directory there should be only links
for each job id (pointing to ../logfiles.machine1/XXX1.21)
6. when naming a job, avoid 'funny' characters (spaces, dots,
underscore etc.): stick with alpha-numeric characters and maybe
hyphen '-'. This holds true for SHARP and autoSHARP!
There is always a script (checkBDG.sh) that will do some very basic
checks on your installation. You can find it at
