[slurm-users] 18.08.4 - batch scripts named "batch" getting rejected.

[mercan]

Hi;

We upgraded from 18.08.3 to 18.08.4 and there is a job_submit.lua script 
also. And nearly same issue at our cluster:

$ sbatch batch
sbatch: error: Batch job submission failed: Unspecified error
$ mv batch nobatchy
$ sbatch nobatchy
Submitted batch job 172174

I hope this helps.
