[slurm-users] Seff error with Slurm-18.08.1

[Miguel A. Sánchez]

Hi all

I have updated my slurm from the 17.11.0 version to the 18.08.1. With
the previous version, the 17.11.0 version, the seff tool was working
fine but with the 18.08.1 version, when I try to run the seff tool I
receive the next error message:

# ./seff 5555
perl: error: plugin_load_from_file:
dlopen(/usr/local/slurm-18.08.2/lib/slurm/accounting_storage_slurmdbd.so):
/usr/local/slurm-18.08.2/lib/slurm/accounting_storage_slurmdbd.so:
undefined symbol: node_record_count
perl: error: Couldn't load specified plugin name for
accounting_storage/slurmdbd: Dlopen of plugin file failed
perl: error: cannot create accounting_storage context for

Both Slurm installations has been compiled from sources in the same
computer but only the seff that was compiled in the 17.11.0 version
works fine. To compile the seff tool, from the source Slurm tree:

cd contrib

make

make install

I think the problem is in the perlapi. Could it be a bug? Any Idea about
how can I fix this problem? Thanks a lot.
