The application works fine logged in as root but exits with signal 11 segment violation as any other user. I have chmod 777 to all files in the directory, the directory itself, chown all files and the directory, chmod 777 the queue placeholders. I do not understand signals well enough to find out what is wrong. The signal violation is picked by an err trap routine. Does anyone know what may be wrong. Any ideas on how to debug it? BYW gdb exits on signals immediately. Are there some other bits or flags not set that should be? Thanks for the help jbeukema ...just when I thought I was beginning to understand
