    • Fixes for OSG autoconf script
    • The tarball to use for CVMFSEXEC will be configurable
    • Fixes error in configuring token lifetime
  • Horst at OU has successfully installed an EL9 CE; he has reported some documentation issues, which BrianL will review

Support Update

  • BrianL (Caltech): Gratia probe failures were due to incorrect directory permissions at the site. This is not the first time such an error has occurred; the Gratia probe should detect this issue and log and/or refuse to start (instead of just discarding records). BrianL will discuss it with Derek.
  • BrianL: A site in India stopped receiving pilots from Fermilab; they reinstalled their CE and need assistance with registration and using token-based pilots
