CCL: Webmo Kills my jobs every six hours

When I was setting up WebMO, I had a few quirks too, but I solved all
 of
 them.  Here's a couple things to check:
 1) What are the time limit / job limit quotas set on your WebMO
 account?  If you are running out of your alloted time, this is a likely
 reason why WebMO would kill your job.
 2) Does the WebMO user account on your server have administrative
 access
 to your PBS queue (or whatever resource manager you are using)?  This
 is
 what solved the problems I was having.  In my case, I included the
 following lines in my TORQUE (PBS) configuration (assuming your webmo
 account is 'webmo' and the dns suffix of the computers in your cluster
 is '.cluster'):
 set server managers += webmo{:}*.cluster
 set server operators += webmo{:}*.cluster
3)  You may also want to check the settings & limits for your
 account in
 your job scheduler (we use MAUI).  WebMO might not be killing your jobs
 - it might be your PBS job scheduler, and your jobs may be getting
 killed because you are exceeding the amount of time you are allowed to
 use (as defined in the scheduler config files).
 Good luck!
