Hello and apologies if this question is in the wrong place. We are upgrading from Debian 8 to Debian 11. I am a developer with no particular background in system administration or configuration. Several weeks into a cycle of install/google-error-message/install-something-else, I have installed munge, slurm, slurm-drmaa, and bats(!). slurmctld and slurmd are now running, but calls to drmaa_run_job() result in seg faults. (The surrounding C++ code is copied from our Debian 8 host, where drmaa_run_job() runs successfully.) I'll print some debug output below, but what I'm really looking for is start-to-finish step-by-step instructions for configuring, installing, and running whatever it takes to make SLURM usable on Debian 11. Thanks in advance.

Last few steps of debug output from drmaa_run_job:

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

FWIW, when I run "make check" in the slurm-drmaa-1.1.3 repo, it stalls after the first test suite:
