That explanation makes perfect sense, but after adding debug to my list of QOSes in my associations, I still get the same error:

$ sacctmgr show user pbisbal withassoc -p
User|Def Acct|Admin|Cluster|Account|Partition|Share|MaxJobs|MaxNodes|MaxCPUs|MaxSubmit|MaxWall|MaxCPUMins|QOS|Def QOS|
pbisbal|unix|Administrator|pppl|unix||1|||||||dawson,debug,default,ellis,fenx,fielder,general,gque,greene,interactive,interruptible,jassby,kruskal,mccune,mque,normal,pswift,sque|general|
pbisbal|unix|Administrator|pppl|transp||1|||||||dawson,debug,ellis,general,interactive,kruskal,mccune,mque,normal|general|
pbisbal|unix|Administrator|test_pppl|transp||1|||||||dawson,debug,ellis,general,interactive,kruskal,mccune,mque,normal|general|

And then:

$ salloc -p general -q qos -t 00:30:00
salloc: error: Job submit/allocate failed: Invalid qos specification

I ran into this recently. You need to make sure your user account has access to that QoS through sacctmgr. Right now I'd say if you did sacctmgr show user <user> withassoc that the QoS you're attempting to use is NOT listed as part of the association.

    Slurm users,

    I have created a partition named general should allow the QOSes
    'general' and 'debug':

    PartitionName=general Default=YES AllowQOS=general,debug Nodes=.....

    However, when I try to request that QOS, I get an error:

    $ salloc -p general -q debug  -t 00:30:00
    salloc: error: Job submit/allocate failed: Invalid qos specification

    I'm sure I'm overlooking  something obvious. Any idea what that
    may be?
    I'm using slurm 18.08.8 on the slurm controller, and the clients are
    still at 18.08.7 until tomorrow morning.
