First, look in your server log directory and check the log files generated by
these two jobs.  They'll almost certainly tell you what the error is.

The other thing I see to check of the top of my head:  compare the Request
Parameters panels for the successful runs v.s. the JOB runs.  They should
look very similar.

In particular, I am suspicious of the "-flpt1" that shows up in Parm List on
the screen shots you sent.  Your site may have changed the setup, but the
default prcs_sqr uses -f options to choose the output file name, and "lpt1"
is probably not the name you want when you run on the server.  If the
sucessful runs have something different there, that's likely to be the
problem.
