Oops, yeah I should have mentioned some of that. It's a Linux environment, and it's running Python 2.2. To my knowledge, the batch files my program calls run a few processes on some data and generate a few temporary files. I believe those files are not correctly being generated. There is an error message in one of the scripts that says could not find xxx.xxx, which is a temp file it creates. The batch files are all executed with tcsh.
