Yep, the same behavior still happens. The issue is:
On AIX 5.3 (Technology Level 9) You can do the following: -Call Universe from a php script from a shell. So if I do: php -f scriptname.php The php script, is changing the directory and firing up universe. Everything works fine from the shell. -If I run that same script through the browser (i.e. Apache 2.2 on AIX), then universe will crash with: An error has occurred during uniVerse initialization Please contact the system administrator Error code: 4 22 Rocket's suggestion is to run it with nohup, which did NOT work. Its not a permissions issue. I made them wide open (777) as a test, and I can call the php script from the shell of the user that Apache runs as, and they work fine- Universe fires up and does its thing. Universe does not get to the point to where it can even call the login proc. It crashes before it can even start.
