Following this guide:

https://jabriffa.wordpress.com/2015/02/11/installing-torquepbs-job-scheduler-on-ubuntu-14-04-lts/

I installed TORQUE on Ubuntu 16-04-lts (he claims the process works the same on 16.04)

A short summary of his install instructions so this can be self sufficient:

apt-get install torque-server torque-client torque-mom torque-pam

/etc/init.d/torque-mom stop

/etc/init.d/torque-scheduler stop

/etc/init.d/torque-server stop

pbs_server -t create



killall pbs_server



echo SERVER.DOMAIN > /etc/torque/server_name

echo SERVER.DOMAIN > /var/spool/torque/server_priv/acl_svr/acl_hosts

echo root@SERVER.DOMAIN > /var/spool/torque/server_priv/acl_svr/operators

echo root@SERVER.DOMAIN > /var/spool/torque/server_priv/acl_svr/managers



echo "SERVER.DOMAIN np=4" > /var/spool/torque/server_priv/nodes

echo SERVER.DOMAIN > /var/spool/torque/mom_priv/config



/etc/init.d/torque-server start

/etc/init.d/torque-scheduler start

/etc/init.d/torque-mom start

# set scheduling properties

qmgr -c 'set server scheduling = true'

qmgr -c 'set server keep_completed = 300'

qmgr -c 'set server mom_job_sync = true 

After following his directions up to:

qmgr -c 'set server scheduling = true'

I get the error message

qmgr obj=master.node svr=master.node: Unauthorized Request

I grep the logs as he mentions and find this unhelpful snippet:
grep Unauthorized /var/spool/torque/server_logs/*

08/25/2018 15:48:43;0080;PBS_Server;Req;req_reject;Reject reply code=15007(Unauthorized Request ), aux=0, type=Manager, from root@master.node

This is my hostname:

master

This is my hosts file:

127.0.1.1 master master

127.0.0.1 localhost

10.136.7.155 master.node 

10.136.7.155 master 

10.136.65.29 slave1

10.136.73.247 slave2

10.136.44.128 slave3

This is how I configured the various config files:

echo master.node > /etc/torque/server_name

echo master.node > /var/spool/torque/server_priv/acl_svr/acl_hosts

echo root@master.node > /var/spool/torque/server_priv/acl_svr/operators

echo root@master.node > /var/spool/torque/server_priv/acl_svr/managers



echo "master.node np=4" > /var/spool/torque/server_priv/nodes

echo master.node > /var/spool/torque/mom_priv/config

Each time I fiddle with it I restart the various daemons with:

/etc/init.d/torque-server restart

/etc/init.d/torque-scheduler restart

/etc/init.d/torque-mom restart

I am currently running as root.

I am at a total loss as to what TORQUE wants here. Why am I unauthorized?

Also qmgr thinks there are no nodes despite having a /var/spool/torque/server_priv/nodes file. Why?

Qmgr: list node

No Active Nodes, nothing done.

I followed the instructions from the same link and has the same error.

The problem is the server is running on the localhost hence if you specified an FQDN other than localhost, the request will appear to come from an unauthorized user.

I had to change server domain in my case to localhost:

echo localhost > /etc/torque/server_name

echo localhost > /var/spool/torque/server_priv/acl_svr/acl_hosts

echo root@localhost > /var/spool/torque/server_priv/acl_svr/operators
