The problem is that your servers were set up at different times. Or rather, your company does not have rigorous policies for setting up servers. Your development and test environments must be an exact match of your production ones and all your production servers must match. Failure to do so means delays in tracking down bugs that could have been avoided. The sad part is that this has been known for over 50 years and people are still stumbling over it. And even sadder is that is always seems to be the programmer to has to try to fix it.
