Dear Shomesankar Bhunia,

R.E.D. reports:
The Scratch directory defined for GAMESS is .
   -> this is a strange idea ;-) We never tested '.' as a scratch directory...
Could try to set the scratch directory as /tmp in 'rungms'?

R.E.D. executes the following command:
  $rungms JOB2-gam_m$NM-$NC-$w $gx $NP > JOB2-gam_m$NM-$NC-$w.log

   $NM = molecule number
   $NC = conformation number for the molecule
   $w = orientation number for the conformation
   $gx = integer between 00 and 09 corresponding to the gamess.$gx.x binary
   $NP = number of processors used in a SMP system

When you executed R.E.D. the JOB2-gam_m1-1-1.inp file was generated
and the JOB2-gam_m1-1-1.log output is an empty file if I understand you.

In the console where you ran R.E.D.: manually execute (1 core is used):
  rungms JOB2-gam_m1-1-1 00 1 > JOB2-gam_m1-1-1.log
   00 : I guess gamess.00.x is your gamess binary you got after compilation...
what do you get in the terminal? in the JOB2-gam_m1-1-1.log output file?
same question with (2 cores are used this time):
  rungms JOB2-gam_m1-1-1 00 2 > JOB2-gam_m1-1-1.log

regards, Francois
