Script not executing the CALCDEFAULT

Question

I've got a load script which gets run everynight, using ESSCMD, which loads new data into an essbase cube, this all seems to work OK, but it doesnt recalculate the cube data.
If I run the calcdefault from within the EAC all is OK. Can someone advise on what I'm doing wrong?
LOGIN "XXX" "XXX" "XXX";
UPDATEVARIABLE "SQL_SOURCE" "" "Dealing" "" "3G.UAT";
SELECT "Dealing" "OpenPos";
DISABLELOGIN;
BUILDDIM 2 "B_AREA" 4 "XXX" "XXX" "build.log"
BUILDDIM 2 "B_DATE" 4 "XXX" "XXX" "build.log"
BUILDDIM 2 "B_LOAD" 4 "XXX" "XXX" "build.log"
BUILDDIM 2 "B_MKT" 4 "XXX" "XXX" "build.log"
IMPORT 4 "XXX" "XXX" 2 "L_DATA" "N" "dataload.log"
CALCDEFAULT;
ENABLELOGIN;
EXIT;

Hmm, if you had an IFERROR statement in your code (should I go into lecture mode -- nope, you know what I'm going to write about untrapped steps in a script -- lecture mode off) I wouldn't be all that surprised -- an error occured and it branched out.
However you don't have error traps so it sounds like Esscmd just up and quit.
I guess you won't know if it works or not till you run it again.
Why don't you throw a SPOOL (I can't remember if that's the Esscmd or MaxL command -- whatever Esscmd uses to log STDOUT and STDERR to a text file) into your code and see where it's failing?
You should also be able to look in the application log and see what happened there.
