It looks like you are having a permissions issue on your Globus node. Make sure all files in the /home/globus/globus-4.2.1 directory are owned by the globus user. The following procedure should solve your issue:
1. cd /home/globus 2. chown -R globus:users globus-4.2.1 Also, make sure the container.pem and containerkey.pem files located in your /etc/grid-security folder is owned by the globus user. Cheers...
