qsub: Bad UID for job execution MSG=could not authorize user odevroed from m0.iihe.ac.be
solution
This usually means something went wrong in the config of pbs
The out put of the following command:

qmgr -c "p s"

should contain lines like these:

set server authorized_users = *@m9.iihe.ac.be
set server authorized_users += *@m8.iihe.ac.be
set server authorized_users += *@m7.iihe.ac.be
set server authorized_users += *@m6.iihe.ac.be
set server authorized_users += *@m5.iihe.ac.be
set server authorized_users += *@cream02.iihe.ac.be
set server authorized_users += *@m2.iihe.ac.be
set server authorized_users += *@m1.iihe.ac.be
set server authorized_users += *@m10.iihe.ac.be
set server authorized_users += *@m0.iihe.ac.be

If they are not present, submission will not work. It probably menas that something is to be fixed in quattor.
But, as a quick fix, you can add the lines manually with the following command:

qmgr -c "set server authorized_users += *@m0.iihe.ac.be"
