John, thanks for your reply. Batch job fails always. I tried running
interactively at the same time as batch tries and at different times.
Interactively, job always works. I set log level to "finest", but it didn't
seem to add new anything to logs. I included new log messages below just in
case. The only new thing that i have is from R code itself. I removed tryCatch
i used to have there and now it prints
Error in ls(envir = envir, all.names = private) :
invalid 'envir' argument
blpConnect.Java -> .jnew -> .External
Maybe this could shed some light on what is going on?

Subject: Re: [R] failure to connect to Bloomber using Rbbg from batch script on
Windows
Andre,
Does the batch script always fail, or is it sometimes successful? You've
probably tried running in batch and interactively one after the other, but if
not please do that to make sure it isn't a timing issue with the Bloomberg
connection.
Also, you can turn up the logging in Rbbg: conn <-
blpConnect(throw.ticker.errors = FALSE, log.level = "finest")
Maybe that will shed some light on the problem.
