Thanks for your help. I've added the missing groups to the user and
when I run the script from the command line it works fine (sh
./service/log_watcher/run).

However when I use sv start ./service/log_watcher/ the permissions
have disappeared and the files can no longer be read.

I have updated the /etc/sv/runsvdir-log_watcher/run to include the
necessary groups to the chpst -u option but it does not seem to help
(I have also tried the -U option to no avail)

Any idea where I should be looking?
