Or else, I need to use '--removedb' option when This is expected behavior. 'Local' is often, but doesn't have to be, unique to each node. It does, however, have to be writable by user. > submiting the job to be able to get the output after the job run, this > is peculiar.

Try assigning 'Local' to a directory you've created. It should be the fastest disk availible to the node, often this is /tmp. -Lucas ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
