Check that the file z3950-daemon-shell.sh is readable and executable by
the apache user. 

ls -l z3950-daemon-shell.sh should show:

-rwxr-x---    1 root     apache   1740 Oct 29 z3950-daemon-shell.sh

likewise, processz3950queue should show:

-rwxr-x---    1 root     apache   7849 Oct 29 processz3950queue


If the group isn't set to apache, or group doesn't have r-x permissions,
run:

chown root.apache z3950-daemon-shell.sh processz3950queue
and
chmod 0750 z3950-daemon-shell.sh processz3950queue
