There is a good little guide on debugging Condor problems:
  http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/CondorWeek2004/presentations/effective_condorg_v4.doc
(likely superseded now; talks about what causes jobs to go on hold, and how to look at log files)

Things like bad paths or args can cause jobs to fail, and get held and/or retried.

Below, the host name gsu1.uchicago.edu may be some grid school host that is down or non-existent???
