Did you install all prerequiste packages (including lua) on the server
where you built the Slurm packages?
On my system I get:
$ strings `which slurmctld ` | grep HAVE_LUA
HAVE_LUA 1

Try setting logging to debug mode, then you can get some info from the logs.

I did try a lua script as soon as I got your first email, but that
never worked (yes, I enabled it in slurm.conf and ran "scontrol
reconfigure" after).
Thanks.

After various tests, all unsuccessful, today I found that link which I
mentioned
lua is the language you can use with the job_submit plugin.
I was showing a quick way to see that job_submit capability is indeed in
there.
You can see if lua support is there by looking for the job_submit_lua.so
file is there.
It would be part of the slurm rpm (not the slurm-slurmctl rpm)
Thanks again, Brian, indeed that grep returns many hits, but none of
them includes lua, i.e.
strings `which slurmctld ` | grep -i job_submit | grep -i lua
returns nothing. So I should use the C rather than the more convenient
lua interface, unless I recompile or am I missing something?
On Thu,
I would be surprised if it were compiled without the support. However,
you could check and run something like:
strings /sbin/slurmctld | grep job_submit
(or where ever your slurmctld binary is). There should be quite a few
lines with that in it.

Thanks Brian for the suggestion, which I am now exploring.
The documentation is a bit cryptic for me, but exploring a few things
and checking

I suspect my slurm install (provided by cluster vendor) was not
compiled wit
