    Description:
    I set up a custom job in job_list, but when the system tries to run the job the log shows an error regarding the log:

    alephe/tab/job_list.conf
    ! mc 20071210
    W4 W NYYYYYY

    alephe/tab/job_list
    ! yesterday's returns
    ! MC 20071207
    W4 06:30:00 N yesterdays_retur.log /app/exlibris/aleph/prod/bcc/sny_scripts/yesterdays_returns_sql

    util e/15/4
    Performing Jobs:
    ----------------
    /app/exlibris/aleph/prod/bcc/sny_scripts/yesterdays_returns_sql
    Unable to open log file /aleph/prod/bcc/alephe/scratch//app/exlibris/aleph/prod/bcc/sny_scripts/yesterdays_returns_sql_111003
    44

    Wait for: 81000 seconds

    Resolution:
    From site: "The shell script called in job_list needed execute permission in unix. I copied the existing scripts in my new script, but had overlooked the permission settings. So the shell script needed 755, but not the sql script."
