[Iplant-api-dev] Filesystem issues with Foundation API?

[Lenards, Andrew J - (lenards)]

Hi,

It looks like users of the Discovery Environment are getting App failures for anything that is run via the Foundation API:

http://ask.iplantcollaborative.org/question/529/read-only-file-system-error/?answer=531#post-id-531

I was able to reproduce the error by running two DE Apps: Scythe-adapter-trimming, FastQC 0.10.1

The errors seem to indicate that the system user (ipcservices, or whichever) does not have permissions to create the directory structure to place the outputs of the jobs.

The Scythe-adapter-trimming job produces the following error in the ``script-error.log`` file returned in logs:

mkdir: cannot create directory `iplant-de-jobs/lenards/j20ac77e1-18ed-42d8-84ce-a39579d8fc34': Read-only file system
/condor01/scratch/lenards/ask_ipc_repro-2013-03-04-14-14-22.752/logs/iplant.sh: line 4: pushd: iplant-de-jobs/lenards/j20ac77e1-18ed-42d8-84ce-a39579d8fc34: No such file or directory

The FastQC 0.10.1 job produces the following error in the ``script-error.log`` file returned in logs:

mkdir: cannot create directory `iplant-de-jobs/lenards/jd887b1e1-0534-4eaa-a534-f259f1201b88': Read-only file system

I don't think this is an issue of ``ipcservices`` not having read access to the inputs (though that crossed my mind).

Thanks in advance for any help we can provide this community member.
