[Swift-user] Question re: reliance on proxy cert

[Thomas Uram]

I'm using coasters with ssh:pbs and have the proper bits in ~/.ssh/auth.defaults to support authentication, but when I run the script it fails due to a missing or expired proxy cert:

Caused by: org.globus.cog.abstraction.impl.common.task.TaskSubmissionException: Could not submit job
Caused by: org.globus.cog.abstraction.impl.common.task.TaskSubmissionException: Could not start coaster service
Caused by: org.globus.cog.abstraction.impl.common.task.InvalidSecurityContextException: org.globus.gsi.GlobusCredentialException: [JGLOBUS-5] Proxy file (/tmp/x509up_u1154) not found.
Caused by: org.globus.gsi.GlobusCredentialException: [JGLOBUS-5] Proxy file (/tmp/x509up_u1154) not found.

Why does it fail when an alternative authentication mechanism is available that would succeed? Is there an option to control this?

The complete log is here, which includes the Swift script and the sites file.
