Hi Ira,

No upgrading to 1.1.9 won't help, the watcher script always needs to be run this way, or it won't have permissions to remove the pid file.

In the install file we suggest running the cron watcher a bit more often - every 5 minutes rather than every 15 minutes for the cron, but it should be fine if you run them both every 5 minutes.
