I never had that problem, but I "googled" for it just now and I found
the following discussion thread about that same error, in this Koha
Mailing List, on March 2010:

Koha- Home > Tools > Task Scheduler
http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Home-Tools-Task-Scheduler-td3048687.html


In that discussion, the following tip from Jason Sherman may help you:
______________________________
Make sure that you have the Perl module Schedule::At installed and
that your web server has permission to use the 'at' system command.
On my system (Ubuntu) access to 'at' is configured with /etc/at.allow
and etc/at.deny.  I had to remove my web-server user (www-data in my
case) from the deny list.

I found the documentation for configuring 'at' on my system in the man
pages for my linux distro
http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man1/at.1.html

I hope this helps you Abdulsalam.

Cheers,
