Hello,

I've been searching around and have not been able to find any hints. I have a plist, pref
pane based app that fires off at a preset time. With Tiger its all good. However Leopard
is failing to run the app at the scheduled time.

Pasted are some errors that I hope will help to identify the problem. I'm not the developer,
who is a contractor dealing with another deadline. I'm hoping to gather information on his
behalf in order to expedite the resolution.

I have access to the dev boxes and can run commands and capture any needed output.

Any help appreciated, and thanks in advance,
Eddy
