I followed all the instructions of getting started with the slurm simulator on a new Ubuntu VM. Everytihng seems fine. But when I run ./exec_sim.pl SIM_DIR 100, I get the following errors in the slurmctld.log file: slurmctld: error: unable to open pidfile /var/run/slurmctld.pid: Permission denied
/var/run/* files have read permissions to users, I am not sure why is slurm trying to open it in write mode. This error goes away if I do sudo ./exec_sim.pl but then other errors come up such as SlurmUser is not set to root, etc.. How to fix this?
