Running Java Application from Job Scheduler and User Has No Passw ord

I've looked through the list and have seen some references to problems
running jobs with a user profile with *NONE for the password, but none of
the referenced fixes seems to work for me. 
 
I have a program that manages our spooled files and it works just fine when
submitted by an interactive job, but when I put the job on the scheduler and
run it using our automation user profile that has password *NONE, it
complains about the fact that the user has a password of *NONE. At first it
was a complaint when using the cross-platform JDBC driver, so I switched to
the native DB2 driver. The next problem was that it didn't have a property
set way down in the SpooledFileList. I traced through the code to where it
was sending the exception because the system name wasn't set in the
implementation object. So I tried to force it by making an AS400.FILE
connection early on. That's now where I'm getting the error on the password
being *NONE. Is there no way to run a java app from the scheduler using a
user profile with no password? I have set the expiration limit to *NOMAX and
that doesn't seem to have helped.
