Thanks Chris, All I can do is recommend that to the team. It has to be something with how stuff is being started via suexec instead of doing direct su and then running the script. At leas that is what I think. Perhaps we can get them do some redirects of std-out and std-err to a log file when they run the scripts, so we can see what is happening.
