<p>I did that but got the same errors.</p>
<p>slurmdbd.log contains by the way the following:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><tt>[2017-11-20T12:39:04.178] error: Couldn't find the
specified plugin name for accounting_storage/mysql looking at
all files</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>[2017-11-20T12:39:04.179] error: cannot find
accounting_storage plugin for accounting_storage/mysql</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>[2017-11-20T12:39:04.179] error: cannot create
accounting_storage context for accounting_storage/mysql</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>[2017-11-20T12:39:04.179] fatal: Unable to initialize
accounting_storage/mysql accounting storage plugin</tt><br>
</p>
</blockquote>
<p>It seems it lacks the accounting_storage_mysql.so:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><tt>$ ls /usr/lib64/slurm/accounting_storage_*</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>/usr/lib64/slurm/accounting_storage_filetxt.so
/usr/lib64/slurm/accounting_storage_none.so
/usr/lib64/slurm/accounting_storage_slurmdbd.so</tt></p>
</blockquote>
<p>However, I did install the slurm-sql rpm package.</p>
<p>Any idea about what's failing?</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Thanks<br>

I've just found out the file `/var/run/slurmdbd.pid` does
not even exist.<br>

<div>The pid file is the "process id" - it's only there if
the process is running. So when slurmdbd is not running,
it wont be there. Supposedly. Sometimes I do "touch
/var/run/slurmdbd.pid" and try again?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I've also found that using the host's short name is
preferable to localhost. Make sure the host's short name
is in /etc/hosts too.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>hostname -s <br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>will give you the short name</div>
