Problem

Exit code 127 means job's command can not be found or executed

Resolving The Problem

A job fails with exit code 127. What does exit code 127 mean?

>bjobs -l
..
Thu Nov 18 18:39:28: Exited with exit code 127. The CPU time used is 0.1 seconds.
Thu Nov 18 18:39:28: Completed .

There are two possible meanings:

  • · The job exits with exit code 127. Ex. "exit 127" or "return(127)”
  • · If LSF returns 127, it means a command in the job is not found or executable.

Refer to "Understanding Platform LSF job exit information” in "Platform LSF Configuration Reference” for more details.
