Invalid spawn id(4)

[lorel]

I have an Expect script that logs in a user to our application running on SCO UNIX 5.0.7.
We have this script working fine in most of our clients. We have a client were this scrip used to work but the last 2 weeks, when we run the script, it fails with the message "invalid spawn id(4)"
I have checked the code of this script with another server were the script works with no problems and it is identical, it has not changed from the time were it used to work.

Can anyone has any ideas what could be causing this?

Again thanks for any help given.

Has the OS on the platform where the script no longer works changed? I really have no concrete ideas but it sounds like it could be some kind of connection privileges issue.

Mr. Rashkin:

As far as I know, no changes has been made to the OS in the server (SCO 5.0.7)

Andrew:

I have done extensive Google searches on this topic, I found several pages on people asking the same question but NO specific answers.

Is there any difference in privileges on the platform where it does work versus where it doesn't?
