I agree that the process that creates the file needs to be looked at first.
- What can you tell us about it?
- Does it write anything useful to the file or is it created empty?
- Why can the application account not create it?
Do you have write access to the directory that this file is in? If so, can you not remove the file anyway? (or is the sticky bit set?)
If the file has to be removed, your application must be able to create a replacement else
There are certainly several ways to grant a remove privilege, but that's probably not the best way to do it.
