Hi,
I'm currently using xgrid for my computations... Here is the setup:
We have multiple imac OS 10.6, a intel server with mac OS 10.5 and two
G5 mac (10.5). All of them have sage4.3 (or 4.3.1) binary build.
In order for us to make xgrid work with sage, we gave some more rights
for user "nobody". (We copied /usr/share/sandbox/
xgridagentd_task_somebody.sb over xgridagentd_task_nobody.sb. So now
xgrid can execute sage anywhere on the disk)
We created a batch job ( a .plist file) to send to xgrid. The tasks
are .sh files containing the lines:
--
#!/bin/bash
export HOME=`pwd`
/usr/local/bin/sage Script.sage
--
and Script.sage contains the line:
--
load My_module.py
Fonction(int1,int2,int3)
--
The Script.py generated file (located on the agent's disk) is then:
--
# This file was *autogenerated* from the file Script.sage.
from sage.all_cmdline import * # import sage library
_sage_const_int1 = Integer(int1); _sage_const_int2 = Integer(int2);
_sage_const_int3 = Integer(int3)
execfile("My_module.py")
Fonction(_sage_const_int1 ,_sage_const_int2 ,_sage_const_int3 )
--
Now, we send the batch job to xgrid. The intel server does everything
OK, so as the G5. But all the imac give the following error:
WARNING: There is one major unsolved bug in some versions of
Sage on OS X 10.6 that causes an 'Abort trap' crash when
doing certain symbolic computations.
See http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/7095/.
Setting permissions of DOT_SAGE directory so only you can read and
write it.
