[Eric Swanson]

I reconfigured and reinstalled orca and was able to run start_orcallator.

THanks for the help.

Sure, there's no problem editting the start_orcallator script.

The problem is probably where are you cd'ed when you're running the
script?  It may not have write permissions to the directory where
you are located.

You wouldn't be in an NFS mounted directory running as root?

Best,
