cmssw: HLT Validation tests fail in all (12_3/4/5/6) IBs since 2022-09-07-1100 IBs

HLT Validation tests fail in all (12_3/12_4/12_5/12_6) IBs since 2022-09-07-1100 IBs.

(For other CMSSW releases, there are so far no IBs made after 2022-09-06-2300)

Has anything changed in the environment in which these jobs are executed?

The error message is:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/pool/condor/dir_9286/jenkins/workspace/ib-run-HLT/CMSSW_12_6_X_2022-09-07-2300/bin/el8_amd64_gcc10/hltListPaths", line 190, in <module>
    paths = getPathList(config)

    raise Exception(f'query did not return a valid HLT menu:\n query="{cmdline}"')
Exception: query did not return a valid HLT menu:
 query="hltConfigFromDB --run3 --v3 --configName /dev/CMSSW_12_4_0/GRun/V110 --noedsources --noes --noservices"

ie, the execution of the command:

hltConfigFromDB --run3 --v3 --configName /dev/CMSSW_12_4_0/GRun/V110 --noedsources --noes --noservices

in a CMSSW environment!

I can not reproduce this failure offline in a standard CMSSW developer environment.

@missirol , no we do not have access to afs or eos

@missirol , we do not mount AFS on build nodes so no we do not have access to /afs/cern.ch/user . There are some build nodes e.g. ppc , arm and grid nodes where there is AFS available but we discourage to make use of it
