Hello all,
QUESTION: When submitting jobs to the cluster as the real user, how should sudo scripts/drmaa_external_runner.py be told which Python to use, and how would it activate the venv if needed for the DRMAA dependency?
Hi Peter,
I think the easiest solution to this is probably to write a wrapper script that sets up the environment for drmaa_external_runner.py and call this wrapper (with the same args), which can then pass the args to drmaa_external_runner.py.

Thanks Nate, So we'd write a shell script called drmaa_external_runner.py which setups the Python environment and then calls a copy of the original Python script drmaa_external_runner.py - has anyone else tried this? Clearly using Python 2.7 on a system with a Python 2.6 default (CentOS 6) is part of the problem. Maybe we can just install the Python DRMAA under the system Python 2.6 instead? Thanks, Peter
