No resubmission allowed if getoutput fails

[ericvaandering]

Original Savannah ticket 6697 reported by None on Sun Apr 6 06:18:41 2008.

Users are reporting () that when they get getoutput operation fails the job stay in "Done" status and it's not possible to resubmit it.
I think the higher occurrance now might be related to a bug in the cleanup sandbox by the WMS (*).
However is there a stategy in CRAB to address/workaround such cases?

Subject: WARNING - bug in cleanup-sandboxes script !!!

Hi all,
> > > http://litmaath.home.cern.ch/litmaath/cleanup-sandboxes/
I just found a bug in the script: it removes files based on their
"mtime" time stamp, but that value can be set to a long time ago
for files that are sent as part of an ISB tar ball !!!

For now, please comment out the cron job (and restart cron, just
to be sure) or better remove the rpm. I will make a new version.

Thanks,
Maarten
