I found the problem. It was between the chair and keyboard:
$ salloc -p general -q qos -t 00:30:00
When I type the qos right, it works:
$ salloc -p general -q debug -t 00:30:00 -A unix
salloc: Granted job allocation 529343
$ scontrol show job 529343 | grep QOS
Priority=13736 Nice=0 Account=unix QOS=debug
I will go stand in the corner now...

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

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.
