So far I can't think of a good "stock" address. Catching the exception is fine
and good. We could abort the script and log a message telling the user that
they need correct the problem.
For example, if you are running this from the shell it should work fine. But
if you are running from a crontab, the environment might not be setup. Our
nightly build crontab own entry has:
PATH=...
USER=noel
...
ensuring that the PATH is setup for the task, and that USER is set.
