Failed to use local-connect in site-local-config.xml

[hernand]

In https://github.com/cms-sw/cmssw/issues/29558 a mechanism was implemented in CMSSW to load the conditions data corresponding to a global tag from a file located in a directory specified in the site-local-config.xml file ( section). In the validation process to integrate the Barcelona Supercomputing Center into CMS operations, one of the steps (the HLT step) of a test workflow (see attached pset), using CMSSW_12_2_1, fails to run with the following error message:

export SCRAM_ARCH=slc7_amd64_gcc900 source /cvmfs/cms.cern.ch/cmsset_default.sh scram p CMSSW CMSSW_12_2_1 cd CMSSW_12_2_1/src eval scramv1 runtime -sh cmsRun configFile-HLT.py

It seems the application does not use the configured local-connect section of the site-local-config.xml file (see the attached file).

The mechanism was implemented from CMSSW version 11_2. It should be present in the version used for the test (CMSSW_12_2_1)

@Dr15Jones, @perrotta, @dpiparo, @makortel, @smuzaffar, @qliphy can you please review it and eventually sign/assign? Thanks.

Likely due to https://github.com/cms-sw/cmssw/issues/27393 (So maybe 12_3_0 is better?)

I have tried with CMSSW_12_3_0_pre2 and I get the same error. I am not sure if the pset being used corresponds to a production workflow, but I think the point here is that it should be guaranteed that all conditions data are read from the global tag for a production workflow. Is that the case?
