Octave seems to work fine on the compute nodes. Did you submit a ticket about this issue sir? Did you get it resolved? <br /><br /><div class="quote-title">Jingjing Li:</div><div class="quote"><div class="quote-content">For anyone who is interested: Octave on Lonestar is configured for login nodes only. We can not run on working nodes yet. They say they are working on installing octave on the working nodes.<br /><br />BTW, since we are supposed not to run jobs on login nodes, basically this means Octave on lonestar is very much useless, I assume.</div></div>

Is anyone successfully using Octave on Lonestar? I am trying to use it (the version already installed on the system. I heard that someone compile there own binary). I met with the following issues:<br /><br />1) I can load the octave module (with other required modules such as mkl, etc.) on the login node, and run octave directly under login node.<br /><br />2) However, when I submit a jobscript in which octave is called with an absolute path to the queue, the job will fail with the following message:<br /><br />Lmod Warning: Did not find: octave/3.6.1<br /><br />/opt/apps/octave/3.6.1/bin/octave: bad interpreter: No such file or directory<br /><br />3) If I use idev and launch an interactive job, and working on an node I am assigned, I found out the following:<br /> a) &#034;module spider octave/3.6.1&#034; returns correct octave module information.<br /> b) &#034;module load octave/3.6.1&#034; fails with &#034;Lmod Warning: Did not find: octave/3.6.1&#034;<br /> c) Other modules such as mkl can be successfully loaded in the interactive job<br /><br />4) If I load all the modules (including octave) under login node, and launch the idev job with -V option, then under the working node I am assigned<br /> a) &#034;module list&#034; indeed shows all the modules loaded under the login node before launching the interactive job, including octave<br /> b) However, &#034;which octave&#034; returns a message that &#034;octave not found in ....(my PATH)&#034;, although /usr/appl/octave/3.6.1/bin/ is indeed in the path.<br /> c) If &#034;ls /usr/appl/octave/3.6.1&#034;, it shows an empty directory!<br /><br />So what is going on? Anyone meet with the same issue or have any suggestions?
