The myproxy-server closed the connection, but I don't know the reason
without seeing the relevant myproxy-server logs.

You attempted to start another myproxy-server instance, but because a
myproxy-server was already running on port 7512, this instance could not
start.

This problem with your host credentials is very likely what is causing
the myproxy-server failure.

I recommend the GT Quickstart:
http://www.globus.org/toolkit/docs/latest-stable/admin/quickstart

In the "Setting up security on your first machine" section, you'll see
instructions for creating /etc/grid-security/host*.pem as required by
the myproxy-server.
