[slurm-users] cant start slurmd

[Tina Friedrich]

That looks odd - I mean I think it very straightforwardly wants to tell 
you that you've configured AuthType=auth/munge and SLURM can't find the 
auth_munge plugin. I didn't think you could even build SLURM without it 
finding munge, that's what puzzles me :)

What version of SLURM is this?

How did you built/install it?

Have you got munge and munge-devel installed everywhere? Specifically, 
have you got munge-devel installed wherever you do the actual 
compilation (if you do do that yourself)?
