if your files are created by the www-data process and are not for anyone 
else to touch, the problem will rise. 
you can't expect an app running in the same permission env on www-data to 
behave (permission-wise) as one running on your user ("fivestar", I guess?)

study your permission (start with 777, and acknowledge 777 is not safe) or 
start the scheduler process in the same security env (su - www-data -c ...)
