The p4 program is finicky about making sure the recorded client Root matches the current working directory. The way it discovers the latter seems to be to inspect shell variable $PWD. This could involve symlinks, that while leading to the same place as the client Root, look different, and cause p4 to fail. Resolve all client paths using "test-path-utils real_path $path". This removes ".." and resolves all symlinks. Discovered while running with --root=/dev/shm, which is a link to /run/shm.
