[Swift-devel] swift problem?

I've submitted a big job to TG NCSA today. At some point it filled up the 
PBS queue completely - I had 384 jobs queued/running (thats the limit). And 
I know that I had many more jobs waiting on my local machine to be 
submitted to TG. Once the jobs started to leave the queue (i.e. were 
finished) - no more jobs were submitted. So I have now only 372 jobs in the 
queue while I should be having 384. Any ideas why is it happening ?

I checked my log on wiggum: 
/sandbox/ydeng/alamines/swift-MolDyn-free-final-c2eygeq2do861.log

and found this error:

I am not sure if its causing the job submission problems ?
I am using this swift code: /sandbox/nefedova/SWIFT/vdsk-0.1rc2 (with some 
options tweaked in scheduler.xml and swift exec)
Thanks!
