I think I've worked this one out - I don't know how that came to be jobcomp/slurmdbd, probably an errant find and replace.
Now I have it as JobCompType=jobcomp/mysql Which has changed the error to the more sensible: [2016-04-13] layouts: no layout to initialize [2016-04-13] error: mysql_real_connect failed: 2013 Lost connection to MySQL server at 'waiting for initial communication packet', system error: 110 "Connection timed out" [2016-04-13] fatal: You haven't inited this storage yet. What have I done wrong now? The in the conf file, the following are all set to the same value: JobCompHost and AccountingStorageHost JobCompPass and AccountingStoragePass JobCompUser and AccountingStorageUser The port is the same too. I tried using the same JobCompLoc and AccountingStorageLoc but that didn't work, then I changed the JobCompLoc and it still doesn't work. Looks like it needs a db schema inserted? Where might I find that or ....?
