Hi

I have build rpms of SLURM-17.10 and installed the rpms on head and compute nodes. When I start the slurmctld service, I get below error. slurmd dameon is getting started without any issue.
 
[root@master ~]# systemctl status slurmctld

It was my mistake. It seems to be a permission issue. I am closing it.
