CryoSPARC Test Jobs Stuck in Launch State

Welcome to the forum @aravi.

Please post text-based information, such as terminal output as text.

The license verification status error may be shown for a variety of reasons and may indicate an inoperable. Do the lines below those shown in the screenshot provide useful information?
What are the outputs of the command

ps -eo user:12,pid,ppid,start,cmd | grep -e cryosparc_ -e mongo
ls -l /tmp/cryosparc*.sock /tmp/mongo*.sock

Can the CryoSPARC master host access the CryoSPARC license URL?

If the qsub command should run on a host other than the CryoSPARC master host, you could include a call to ssh inside the send_cmd_tpl cluster info variable. Here is a SLURM example, which can be adapted for PBS.

{
    "send_cmd_tpl": "ssh submit.cluster.mydomain {{ command }}",
    "qsub_cmd_tpl": "/opt/slurm/bin/sbatch {{ script_path_abs }}",
    "qstat_cmd_tpl": "/opt/slurm/bin/squeue -j {{ cluster_job_id }}",
    "qdel_cmd_tpl": "/opt/slurm/bin/scancel {{ cluster_job_id }}",
    "qinfo_cmd_tpl": "/opt/slurm/bin/sinfo",
    "cache_path": null,
    "cache_reserve_mb": null,
    "cache_quota_mb": null,
    "name": "slurm1",
    "title": "slurm1",
    "worker_bin_path": "/progs/cryosparc_worker/bin/cryosparcw"
