Honestly I'm stuck. If I kill the process after it does it's job, I'm thinking that there is no residual from the previous program. When I do a ps -A there is only 1 program left to kill after it finishes processing. I kill this process and run my script. Whenever the 2nd run occurs, it acts as if processing is taking place when it really isn't. I know this because all the files are left in the database instead of being cleared out. The only thing I can think of is that for some reason the variables on the 2nd run are not being passed. When I get to work tomorrow, I will put in print statements to see if this is indeed the case. Why it would work the first time through and not the next time through (after being killed) has got me stumped. Any ideals?
