LALFrameL.c error on CIT
While running some LALInference jobs on a TGR pipeline on CIT, we encountered the following error:
XLAL Error - XLALFrFileOpenURL (LALFrameIO.c:117): I/O error
XLAL Error - XLALFrStreamFileOpen (LALFrStream.c:138): Internal function call failed: I/O error

A couple of examples are here:
Run 1: cat /home/rebecca.ewing/pseob_runs/GW190519a/gr_run/log/*.err | grep LALFrameL
Run 2: cat /home/rebecca.ewing/pseob_runs/GW190519a/log/*.err | grep LALFrameL
To briefly describe these two runs, Run 1 was a PE run being done on GW190519a, while Run 2 was the corresponding non-GR run. Both were however done using identical environments, by sourcing:
source /cvmfs/oasis.opensciencegrid.org/ligo/sw/conda/etc/profile.d/conda.sh
conda activate /home/abhirup.ghosh/.conda/envs/lalsuite-v6.70_pSEOBNRv4HM_tgr
source /home/abhirup.ghosh/.conda/envs/lalsuite-v6.70_pSEOBNRv4HM_tgr/etc/lalsuite
This environment contained the specific branch of lalsuite containing our ringdown pipeline installed in it. These are standard LALInference jobs, except in the case of the non-GR run, we sample over some extra parameters.
