Re: [Globus-discuss] globus-job-get-output fails? (fwd)



Thanks for your response,

That is true, I never mentioned in my mail how it failed :-). I had tried
to access the server using a browser but it dindnt work for me so that is
why I was asking if it should work using a web browser.

Cheers,
Roman

Sorta. The https URL that globus-job-submit returns, which you then
cut'n'paste into globus-job-get-output, basically says that the server
expects to be talked to in the HTTPS protocol. So if your client tries to
talk to it using a different protocol, eg telnet or ftp, it wont listen. I
don't think there is any particular reason that fetching job output has to
use https to do it, but it's an obvious choice for Globus since having its
components talk http/https facilitates subsequently integrating Globus with
Web services.

The globus-job-get-out fetches the stdout and stderr files of your job.
These files are saved in the remote machine's GASS cache under the userid
which ran your job . Specifically ~/.globus/.gass_cache/.  The file
~/.globus/.gass_cache/globus_gass_cache_state matches the https job id to
its stdout and stderr files.


But never say why/how globus-job-get-output is failing for you?

Hi all,

Does https protocol present on globus-job-get-output syntax mean that I
can access that information through the web? If not, why to use https?.
Where are thoseresults stored in (In the server)?

Thanks,
Roman
