Specific Errors

 Q. Why does my Desktop session fail with "Could not connect to session bus: failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-"?

This is most commonly seen with users who have Anaconda or Miniconda initialized in their accounts. For a permanent solution, you can run the following command from an interactive terminal session:

conda config --set auto_activate_base false

This will prevent conda from auto-activating when you first log in and allow you to have more control over your environment. When you'd like to activate anaconda, run conda activate. See this example for information running anaconda workflows in batch with auto-activation disabled.

 Q. Why am I getting "/bin/bash^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory"?

Scripts created in a Windows environment and transferred to HPC retain hidden carriage returns (^M). You can convert your Windows file to Unix format with:

$ dos2unix <filename>
 Q. What does "Bad UID for job execution" mean?

This happens most frequently for new users. It takes a while to propagate new accounts to all the right places. Come back after a coffee break. However, this can occur in other circumstances. Open a support ticket with hpc-consult.

 Q. Why am I recieving the error "CUDA error: no kernel image is available for execution on the device" when making use of a GPU?

Add this variable definition before executing the application:

export CUDA_FORCE_PTX_JIT=1
