It thinks the command is

    '/usr/local/bin/startbkpemail.sh nxweb05 incr';

so it is trying to run this executable:

    '/usr/local/bin/startbkpemail.sh

rather than this command:

    /usr/local/bin/startbkpemail.sh nxweb05 incr

I suspect you have added quotation symbols inside the CGI editor for
DumpPreUserCmd.  The quotation marks and semicolon should not be
used inside in the CGI editor - those are only if you are editing
the config.pl settings directly.
