Hi Shane,

We had enabled this feature on our cluster working with PBS but since we switched to LSF, we never managed to have it working again. Same error as yours if I correctly remember. After hours spent looking into LSF, I think we understood that LSF somehow catches the user change and rejects the job. We finally gave up.

I am not sure this helps ...

Has anyone had any success in getting cluster jobs running as the real user?  I've got our server happily working with LSF via drmaa but all jobs run as the galaxy user and I would like to be able to separate out the jobs on a per user basis.  I've followed the instructions at https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/Config/Performance/Cluster#Submitting_Jobs_as_the_Real_User
but I'm having no luck with it so was wondering if someone would know how I might debug it, like where could I find the script it is trying to execute?  All I'm getting is code 18: invalid LSF job id although it does seem to be creating files in my databases/tmp directory owned by the user.
