Using ganga at NIKHEF

You need an afs ticket to run ganga. Also, you need a grid certificate, and you need to setup the grid, as described in the DQ2 at Nikhef wiki. At the same time, assuming you set up the GRID tools according to Martijn’s Wiki, COMMENT OUT THE LINE: source /project/atlas/nikhef/dq2/dq2_setup.csh.NIKHEF If you setup the GRID tools in some other way, make sure the grid tools environment is not loaded. GANGA AND GRID TOOLS ENVIRONMENT CLASH! Apparently, it is a mismatch between the grod tools environment and the Athena environment. You can add the line to an alias or whatever, if you wish. Then setup ATHENA at NIKHEF as described in athena 12.0.6 Wiki.

To setup ganga, add the two following lines to the .cshrc:
setenv GANGA_CONFIG_PATH GangaAtlas/Atlas.ini
!#for the local installation
!#set path = (/public/public_linux/Ganga/install/4.3.0/bin/ $path)
!# for the newest version installed on afs
set path = (/afs/cern.ch/sw/ganga/install/4.3.1/bin/ $path)
setenv LFC_HOST ’lfc03.nikhef.nl’
setenv LCG_CATALOG_TYPE lfc
