Executing a shell script with DBMS_SCHEDULER

Question

Hi,
when I execute a shell script with DBMS_SCHEDULER this doesn't works correctly
BEGIN
DBMS_SCHEDULER.create_job
job_name => 'job_AR',
job_type => 'EXECUTABLE',
job_action => '/home/crm/crmdw/AR/start_execution.sh',
enabled => TRUE,
start_date => systimestamp,
repeat_interval => 'FREQ=MINUTELY;INTERVAL=15',
comments => 'Test Job AR'
END;Inside the shell script there is a code who call a Hierarchy of process,
if I executed it manually or with a cron, it works perfectly
but when I execute it with the job that I've described before it's executes
all process at same time and it doesn't work.
What can I do to fix the issue,
any Ideas?
Thanks in advanced...

#!/usr/bin/ksh
#test_dbms_scheduler.ksh
echo $1
echo "I am in Unix"
exit 0
chmod 755 test_dbms_scheduler.ksh
Create or replace procedure test_dbms_scheduler
as
v_text varchar2(255) := 'Parameter passed from Oracle to Unix';
Begin
dbms_output.put_line("I am in Procedure");
dbms_scheduler.create_job
(job_name=>'test_dbms_scheduler',
job_action=>'/usr/bin/test_dbms_scheduler.ksh',
number_of_arguments=>1,
job_type=>'executable',
start_date => SYSDATE,
repeat_interval => 'FREQ=SECONDLY; INTERVAL=1',
enabled=>false,
auto_drop => TRUE,
comments=> 'Run shell-script test_dbms_scheduler.ksh');
dbms_scheduler.set_job_argument_value(job_name =>'test_dbms_scheduler', argument_position => 1, argument_value => v_text);
dbms_scheduler.enable('test_dbms_scheduler');
dbms_output.put_line("I am back in Procedure");
Exception
when others then
dbms_output.put_line(sqlcode||sqlerrm);
end;
set serveroutput on
exec test_dbms_scheduler;
