Hi Gary.
I turned on ECCE_RCOM_LOGMODE and managed to sort out the scp problem and with that got things running.
Thank you so much for pointing me in the right direction! It turns out that you made ECCE a bit too smart...
The original problems were
1. I can't copy the files to remote site/node and
2. No remote xterm opens
SCP problem: Turns out scp wants upper-case P and doesn't accept lower-case p. ssh of course want lower-case p and doesn't accept upper-case P.
This is from a succesful run on a local node using port 22
arg 0: scp
arg 1: -r
arg 2: /tmp/ecce_andy/jobs/water__8PsJsN/nwch.nw
arg 3: /tmp/ecce_andy/jobs/water__8PsJsN/submit__water
arg 4: /tmp/ecce_andy/jobs/water__8PsJsN/eccejobmonitor.conf
arg 5: /tmp/ecce_andy/jobs/water__8PsJsN/nwchem.desc
arg 6: /home/andy/.ecce/ecce-6.3/apps/scripts/eccejobmonitor
arg 7: andy@borax:/home/andy/mine/testing/old/water
end remote copy command
This is an unsuccesful run using a node via localhost -p 9999
with this in the ecce-6.3/apps/siteconfig/remote_shells.site file
ssh_p9999: ssh -p 9999
and this is what happens:
arg 0: scp
arg 1: -p
arg 2: 9999
arg 3: /tmp/ecce_andy/jobs/water__bLmRNx/nwch.nw
arg 4: /tmp/ecce_andy/jobs/water__bLmRNx/submit__water
arg 5: /tmp/ecce_andy/jobs/water__bLmRNx/eccejobmonitor.conf
arg 6: /tmp/ecce_andy/jobs/water__bLmRNx/nwchem.desc
arg 7: /home/andy/.ecce/ecce-6.3/apps/scripts/eccejobmonitor
arg 8: andy@localhost:/home/andy/jobs/testing/old/water
Forgetting about the -r switch for a second here, the latter command fails when I try:
scp -p 9999 /tmp/ecce_andy/jobs/water__bLmRNx/nwch.nw andy@localhost:/home/andy/jobs/testing/old/water
scp: /home/andy/jobs/testing/old/water: No such file or directory
which is true, there isn't on localhost (but should be on localhost -p 9999). That directory structure is on the remote node (runtime: /home/andy/jobs + testing/old/water) but for some reason the -p switch is completely ignored by scp (the files on the ecce workstation is on ~/.ecce/ecce-6.3/server/data/Ecce/users/andy/testing/old/water/).
However,
scp -P 9999 /tmp/ecce_andy/jobs/water__bLmRNx/nwch.nw andy@localhost:/home/andy/jobs/testing/old/water
nwch.nw 100% 476 0.5KB/s 00:00
works.
The solution is thus to change to:
ssh_p9999: ssh -p 9999|scp -P 9999
I can now submit jobs to the remote debian node (p 9999)!
Getting the remote site to work for submission took a little longer and boiled down to a silly little thing (in addition to the -P issue):
I had qsub in the path name like this:
NWChem: /opt/sw/nwchem-6.1/bin/nwchem
Gaussian-03: /usr/local/bin/G09
perlPath: /usr/bin/perl
qmgrPath: /opt/n1ge62/bin/lx24-amd64/qsub
while it should really be
NWChem: /opt/sw/nwchem-6.1/bin/nwchem
Gaussian-03: /usr/local/bin/G09
perlPath: /usr/bin
qmgrPath: /opt/n1ge62/bin/lx24-amd64
On a related note, I'm not sure what corresponding lines I'm to look for when parsing the logging output from using "singleConnect: check", but it's not quite as relevant anymore.
See here for the full setup using port redirection:
[blog http://verahill.blogspot.com.au/2012/05/port-redirection-with-eccenwchem.html]
Remaining problem:
This really isn't that important anymore since I'm more concerned with launching jobs.
However, here it is for completeness:
I still can't open any remote terminals, and I've also tried with e.g.
' ssh_p9999: ssh -XC -p 9999|scp -P 9999
I'm not sure why, as running
xterm -title "oxygen" -bg "#b7b8ba" -fg "#000000" -sb -e csh -c "cd ~ && $SHELL"
opens a window as it is supposed to.
