login script not working

I have a rexx routine I like to run at login. A lady's voice tells me
the date and time of login. I set up the command in
System Settings > Notifications > Event Source pull down > Plasma
Workspace > login
Under login I enter the command:
/home/rob/Dropbox/shared_rcss_complex/create_sound_file.sh
The script calls a rexx routine by the same name and works fine in
Konsole and works if invoked under
System Settings>Startup and Shutdown as a script file at startup. Under
Event Notifications and Actions, Plasma Workspace, Login I have checked
log to a file. Nothing is logged. If I check Play a Sound,
Oxygen-Sys-Log-In-Short.ogg is played at login.
In summary Play a Sound works, Log to a File does not, and the sound
script does not play sound but it does
play the sound if invoked as a startup script. Can anyone suggest how to
get this working so I can get a log
file created? It worked fine under Linux Mint 17.3 KDE and Linux Mint
18.3 KDE but not KDE Neon 5.14-5.
This occurs in KDE Neon 15.4 and KDE Neon 15.5 Ir worked fine in Linux
Mint 17.3 and 18.* KDE.
