Thanks again Chals for your input. I checked if my config script is executable and it is, the other two were copied over from the correct location that you indicated to me. I purged Live Build and then reinstalled it. Still no good. I purged it again. Rebooted my laptop, reinstalled Live Build again and it worked. Now all I need to check is that the build starts, and the final build works correctly after completion.
