When starting up the LM-X license server at boot time on Mac OS X 10.4, LM-X may crash if the HOME environment variable is unset. This is not a bug in LM-X, but rather in Mac OS X 10.4. Note that this error does not occur when using LM-X on Mac OS X 10.5.

To resolve this error, set the HOME environment variable before spawning the license server process. For example, you can create a startup script such as /etc/rc.local, as follows:

export HOME=/var/tmp
/Applications/LicenseServer/lmx-serv-demo -c /Applications/LicenseServer/licenseserver.cfg -lf /Applications/LicenseServer/ licenseserver.log -b
