Hi Serge,

The problem you're talking about seems to be fixed now. I think the 
cause was that the LSST stack isn't relocatable, so you can't build in 
in /sps/stack and then copy it to workers /qserv/smm/stack. Indeed you 
have to build the initial version in /qserv/smm/stack (which can be a 
symlink to /sps/stack).

The docker solution will solve this issue.

Cheers,

Fabrice

/qserv/stack/Linux64/mysql/5.1.65.lsst2/bin

Also, while I know we shouldn’t be using GPFS, we unfortunately are - somehow /sps/... got embedded into John’s stack. See for example /qserv/smm/stack/Linux64/mysql/5.1.65.lsst2/bin/mysqld_safe on one of the workers - it references /sps all over the place. I don’t know how that happened, but I’m also not sure it’s worth worrying about right now.
