Thanks Chuck!

That seems to have done the trick (and I got some sleep last night). We gave everything in the app permissions of 'o+x', 'o+w', and 'o+r' and suddenly the green light in JavaMonitor was on.

Now that we've opened everything up to the world, is there a resource out there that defines which files need which permissions on the server?

Probably not.  :-)  This is worth reading: 
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/WebObjects/Deployment/Deploying_Applications/Introduction/chapter_1_section_1.html

At one point, WOLips was not marking the script that starts the app as executable. That might have been it. It was the .woa directory that you changed permissions on? It needs to be readable by the user that wotaskd is running as. This should be _appserver if things are setup correctly. _appserver also needs execute permission on the AppName.woa/AppName script.

Hi Folks.

Summary:
        I can't start an instance of an app (migrated from XCode) built in
WOLips with JavaMonitor, but I can run it from the command line
(MyApp.woa/MyApp).

Dev Env:
        OSX 10.5.6
        Eclipse 3.3.2
        WOLips 3.3.5596
        using the 'woswitch.sh' script to build as WO 5.3

Server:
        OSX 10.4.x
        WO 5.3
        Apache

- Trying to launch an instance of the application on the server
through JavaMonitor fails - the light never turns green and the
Deaths increment up.
- The app runs successfully on the server when started at the
command line (MyApp.woa/MyApp).
- The server is currently successfully hosting a version of this app
(that can be launched using JavaMonitor) that was built using the
old Apple dev tools (XCode?) on 5.3.
- When I launch my WOLips version of the app from the command line
(without any switches), it runs in DirectConnect mode - this is
successful.
- The 'old' XCode version app on the server (that is launched with
JavaMonitor) is NOT running in direct connect mode (images, CSS,
etc. are being served via Apache).

Any ideas about what I can to
        1) diagnose the problem?
        2) fix the problem?

Thanks very much folks!  I've been banging my head against the wall
on this one!
