[Swift-user] local coaster looking for credential (was Re: mixing gram execution and local filesystem providers)

[Allan Espinosa]

Do coasters always need a proxy certificate?  This was found in my log
when i executed using  the "local:pbs" job manager

Caused by: org.globus.gsi.GlobusCredentialException: [JGLOBUS-5] Proxy
file (/tmp/x509up_u1600) not found.
