DataTables warning, queue not shown #28

Closed andreas-h closed 5 years ago

andreas-h commented 5 years ago

When opening the Slurm Queue Manager, I get a popup:

DataTables warning: table id=queue - Ajax error. For more information about this error, please see http://datatables.net/tn/7

My queue's contents are not displayed even though I have running jobs in there.

Does this extension make any assumptions about the SLURM configuration?

Seems to work now, sorry for the noise.

Thank you again for using JupyterLab Slurm and giving feedback about the user experience!

I think this is a good issue, because the error you get when the environment isn't set up correctly with Slurm isn't very informative or helpful.

Like if it gets back the response squeue: Command not found it should say that to the user, instead of the cryptic DataTables warning that currently shows up.

We're planning to refactor the code to use a new dependency instead of DataTables so hopefully in the not too distant future this won't be a problem anymore.

@andreas-h When I got the warning/problem recently, it was because I had forgotten to install the server extension as well as the Jupyter lab extension. (I agree that this is very annoying -- currently there is no standardized mechanism for installing both simultaneously.)

Posting this here for future reference vis a vis debugging to myself and anyone else who might find it useful.
