I've modified the file in this way: ./$PRODUCT_BIN -d $PRODUCT_SUBDIR/config -strace $@ And so there is a new line in /opt/fedora-ds/admin-serv/logs/error : [29/Jun/2005:09:35:38] failure ( 4191): Invalid configuration: Could not determine base pathname of the file I've tried the same things on Centos 4.1 and Fedora Core 4.
