Jobs deleted staying in 'dr' status
Hi all, We have been developing our own Galaxy instance for a while now. We have a cluster on which the job are sent to be executed, it is managed through SGE. Usually, communication between SGE and DRMAA is ok and we don't have any problem with that. When a job is deleted by the user, most of the times, the job disappears but sometimes, we don't know why, the job stays and has the status 'dr' within SGE. If we don't kill it 'manually', it stays forever. It is not always the same tools which produces this error . Have you any idea why how manage it ? We have another problem, a display one. Since the last update, we experienced problem with the history. Launching a job, it was very long to appear in the history and we had to refresh. We got a more recent version of firefox and it seems that we don't have the problem anymore. But some user of ours can't update their firefox. Are you aware of that problem ?

I have noticed problem with our DRMMA/SGE setup where a user can cancel a large job (using the job splitter in at least some cases), but Galaxy does not seem to cancel the jobs on the cluster. I've not tried to diagnose this yet - it could be a similar issue though. Peter

Also, in our DRMAA/LSF setup (using a fork of the latest galaxy-dist) jobs generated by the current workflow step continue running on the cluster after history is deleted. Ilya

Hi Ilya, I also see this behaviour with DRMAA/GridEngine. I think this has been already reported: https://trello.com/c/1whC9did/245-currently-running-jobs-in-deleted-historie... Please upvote it! Best, Nicola
