Oops; the other essential guideline for getting help is to include a

Hi Erica,
You'll find much of this discussion takes place frequently, most
recently about a week ago.
To get started,
[*]It looks like Slurm can't find a mail program. Use
$ scontrol show config | grep MailProg
to see what program Slurm is looking for.
[*]You probably want a subdirectory in /var/spool, such as
/var/spool/slurm, for your state save location so that Slurm
doesn't need full root privs to write to it
For further help from the people on this list, please include
[*]What version of Slurm you are using
[*]Whether you built it yourself, or if it came from a
pre-built distribution
[*]A copy of your slurm.conf file (you might want to obscure
specific node names and other data that might be used to
compromise your system)
Also, as noted above, much of this is covered frequently; check
the mail archives for more detail. (BTW, this is generally true
of open source projects; most of them have frequent "Hey, I've
just started using your program, and I've run into a hurdle..."
discussions. You gain immediate credibility if you start your
queries with "I've got a problem, and I can't find it in the
mail archive.")
Regards,
Andy

Hi all,
I've installed slurm, and I when I try to start
slurmctld, I get these errors:
> slurmctld -D -vvvv
slurmctld: pidfile not locked, assuming no running
daemon
slurmctld: error: Configured MailProg is invalid
slurmctld: error: Job accounting information
gathered, but not stored
slurmctld: fatal: Incorrect permissions on state save
loc: /var/spool
Has anyone seen it before and know what might be the
cause for such errors?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
