Ok, so now I think I know what really going on... from

B-14: exec: couldn't create error file for command: Error 0
If exec returns an error message of "couldn't create error file for
command: Error 0", the following may help:
This problem exists under Unix and Windows NT. I have conclusive proof
that under Unix it was being caused by the temporary directory not being
world writable, which explains why superusers were able to "exec"
something but not a regular user. The "gotcha!" is that /tmp is not
necessarily the temporary directory that is used, so people were not
seeing an obvious problem. Tcl uses the tmpnam() system call, which on
many systems actually uses /var/tmp, and on some systems that directory
was not world writable. I would like to call this a problem with one's
site administration.
Since root access to the hardware I'm using is not attainable, how do I
work around this ? Any ideas ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
