A similar bug exists in version 2.1.8 (locally backported to feisty):

Setting up torque-mom (2.1.8+dfsg-0ubuntu1-bionmr2) ...
 * Starting Torque Mom:
pbs_mom: No such file or directory (2) in chk_file_sec, Security violation with
"/var/lib/torque/mom_priv/jobs"
invoke-rc.d: initscript torque-mom, action "start" failed.
dpkg: error processing torque-mom (--install):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3
Setting up torque-client (2.1.8+dfsg-0ubuntu1-bionmr2) ...
Errors were encountered while processing:
 torque-mom

I had to create /var/lib/torque/mom_priv/jobs here, and chmod og+w /var/lib/torque/spool/ (and perhaps ../undelivered/ as well) before mom would run any jobs. Is 1777 the correct mode to use?

Installing torque-server threw quite a number of errors because it tried to start without the directories /var/lib/torque/server_priv/jobs, ../queues and ../accounting.

I'm glad I have used DQS before, otherwise I'd have barfed on configuring the server ...
