The "slave" referred to here is the process that needs to log in to

When you connect via uvcs (which you do from UniObjects to UniVerse)
the listener is unirpcd (or uvrpcd on older versions), listening on
port #31438 (by default).
A request to connect has unirpcd consult its services file
(unirpcservices) for the name of the service that you have requested
(that is, uvcs, the UniVerse common server), checks from the
services file that your IP address is eligible to request that
service and, if so, starts an instance of the associated executable,
in this case uvapi_server. The uvapi_server is then your
connection's "agent process" on the server, looking after such
things as maintaining communications, monitoring the inactivity
timeout interval, and so on.
When some work needs to be done, such as executing a query, a child
process uvapi_slave is logged in to do the actual work. Its stdout
and stderr are redirected back to its parent (uvapi_server) so that
the results may be returned to the client. It is this slave process
that has failed to start correctly.
Many reasons exist why this might be so. The most common, in my
experience, is that there is no "clean path" to TCL - that is, the
LOGIN process in the account puts unexpected text on stdout. All
uvcs processes must be guaranteed a clean path to TCL. You can test
@TTY = "uvcs" in the LOGIN paragraph in a similar way that you might
test @TTY = "phantom" to bypass application startup for PHANTOM
processes. (This might not be your actual problem, of course, and
I'm not suggesting that it is, but it's something that's definitely
worth investigating.)

Here's the error. I got this from the UniDK/include/Uvoaif file.
UVE_SR_SLAVE_EXEC_FAIL = 39204 ' The slave failed to start
correctly
Unfortunately, just as an out of context error message, I don't
know what it means. Maybe someone else can pick it up from here.
