Thanks Chuck.

The permissions are good all the way through to 
/opt/Local/Library/WebObjects/Logs. wotaskd is running as appserver according 
to ps. So, wotaskd should be launching my app as appserver, correct? It's crazy 
- I am able to launch my app on the command line (as appserver - 498) with all 
the arguments from JavaMonitor. ps indicates all three apps are owned by 498 - 
and a log is created in /opt/Local/Library/WebObjects/Logs.

But it refuses to launch from within JavaMonitor. The soup thickens.
