Hi All,
I am trying to submit a batch job to apache from perl cgi and R website . So work can be done when the server load is less. The batch job does gets submitted.
atq command shows the job in queue. But when the server load gets down then also it does not to the required processing. And the job is removed from the Q
The batch command is as follow
/usr/bin/R --slave < /var/www/cgi-bin/sigpathway/main.R > /var/www/html/sigpathway/output/tmp/sig2065512059358370/output.txt 2>&1 --args sig2065512059358370 wait = FALSE
Please suggest something

I'd suggest pondering these questions:
- Is /etc/at.deny|allow used?
- What loadavg is atd started with?
- Is atd started with "-d" or are there at messages in syslog?
- What user ID submits the job to the queue and what user should the job really run as?
- Does any user have "at" job mails in its mail spool and if not, what account do you redirect e-mails to?

I got following warning : " This account is currently not available."

not used
- What loadavg is atd started with?
<didnt used atd....just used batch -f"
- Is atd started with "-d" or are there at messages in syslog?
- What user ID submits the job to the queue and what user should the job really run as?
apache submits the job. And apache should really run the job as all the temp files and folders are created by apache
- Does any user have "at" job mails in its mail spool and if not, what account do you redirect e-mails to?
apache does have the job mails in its spool

OK, but any related to at jobs? What do these e-mails say?

emails says..."this account is not available"

I doubt that's e-mail content. Try to read the file with like a text editor.

this the mail :
From: Apache <apache@compbio.med.harvard.edu>
To: apache@compbio.med.harvard.edu
