Hi list !
I finally found the solution. I found what was missing for "appserver" to be able to export via QT4J !
The user "appserver" needs to write an empty preference file (~/ Library/Preferences/Quicktime Preferences if my memory is good) to be able to export. But, "appserver" has obviously no home. So I went to NetInfo Manager and assigned a home where appserver can write... and it works. You can even prevent appserver from writing there as soon as one export has succeeded.
I hope that will help someone in the same case !
