To answer my own question:
The confusion is that the Webtools "Run Service" returns to the
"Schedule Job" web page even though my service has successfully run. I
can see the output in the log file.
The "Schedule Job" web page wants me to enter in Job Scheduling
parameters. Maybe a successful "Run Service" invocation should return to
a different web page?
Regards,
Ruth
