Add a few tests to make sure it's working correctly:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
LOADER="/dq5/bin/loader"
if [ ! -x $LOADER]
then
  echo "$LOADER missing or wrong permissions!"
  exit 1
fi

for file in abc.cfg def.cfg
do
  if [ ! -r $file ]
  then
    echo "$file missing or wrong permissions!"
    exit 1
  fi
done

if [ ! -w /dq5/java/ ]
then
  echo "/dq5/java/ missing or wrong permissions!"
  exit 1
fi

$LOADER -t abc.cfg -f /dq5/java/data.txt
$LOADER -t def.cfg -f /dq5/java/data1.txt

If it still fails silently, run this and report back what it says:
Code:
file /dq5/bin/loader

and
Code:
truss /dq5/bin/loader
