[Rivet] Sherpa fails to run on batch system

Hi Holger,

I don't know what's in your batch jobs scripts or in your .zshrc, so
it's hard to figure out what the problem might be.

But I thought your installation was stand-alone and not looking for any
libs in /afs/cern.ch/ ? So these lines here look strange:

> AGILe.Loader: TRACE  Testing for

I'm running Sherpa without any problems in Wuppertal. Here is one of my
scripts, and I don't set any other environment variables. Rivet is
installed in /griddata/gridsoft/local/hendrik/installation/local/.
So if you want to compare anything ...:

----------------------------------
#!/bin/bash 
##PBS -q dg_med
##PBS -m n
##PBS -N prof_000
export PATH=$PATH:/griddata/gridsoft/local/hendrik/installation/local/bin:/griddata/gridsoft/local/hendrik/installation/sherpa/bin
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/griddata/gridsoft/local/hendrik/installation/local/lib
export AGILE_GEN_PATH=/griddata/gridsoft/local/hendrik/installation
mkdir /griddata/gridsoft/local/hendrik/rundir/sherpa_run_prof_000
cd /griddata/gridsoft/local/hendrik/rundir/sherpa_run_prof_000
cp -r /griddata/gridsoft/local/hendrik/rundir/Process .
cp -r /griddata/gridsoft/local/hendrik/rundir/Run.dat .
rivetgun -g Sherpa -n 400000 -P lep1.params -p "PATH=$PWD" -a <... all the analyses ...> -H /griddata/gridsoft/local/hendrik/rundir/2008-08-27-10D-sherpa/mc/000/out -p <... all the parameters ...> &> /griddata/gridsoft/local/hendrik/rundir/2008-08-27-10D-sherpa/mc/000/out.log
exit 0
