osascript bug?

Hi,

I'm trying to call the osascript command from php, but I think there is a bug in the osascript command which causes it to crash in certain cases. I don't know exactly what the problem is, but it seems to have something to do with user privileges and initializing some image routines (why does it need those btw?).

When I call the command from php as the www user (default user for apache) it crashes. When I change the apache user to the same one as I'm currently logged in as, it works.

So far so good, but now when I call two of them at the same time (for example when I have two web clients accessing at the same time), one of the processes crashes, the other one works fine. Here's what I get in the osascript.crash.log:

Date/Time: 2002-04-15 10:57:20 +0200
OS Version: 10.1.3 (Build 5Q110)

Command: osascript
PID: 4445

Exception: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001)
Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE (0x0002) at 0x00000008

Folks at Apple, is this a bug? It would also be nice if there was some feedback of an error occurring or so. Now it just returns nothing, and the only way you can tell what happened is turn on crash reporting and look in the crash log.

Best regards,

Paul
