Database Problems w/ Linux Standalones...

Okay, here is an example of what is happening.

The attached revolution file contains a button and a text field (used 
as a debugging log type of thing).

Again, I use Studio version 2.2.1 under Mac OS X, and I built three 
versions of the standalone: Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux.

The Windows and Mac OS X versions work "as advertised", but the Linux 
version seems to exit the handlers after dumping the first line of text 
to the log field.  If I comment out the line with the revOpenDatabase 
and uncomment the second line, then it does not try to connect, so the 
rest of the script works fine.

I could understand better if I was getting an error message back from 
revOpenDatabase, but *all* running handlers seem to be exiting -- not 
just the one containing the function call.

If it would help, I could *try* to get a Solaris/SPARC or Irix opinion 
on the issue, but it will take some time, as I will need to set up the 
hardware (I have those systems disconnected right now), and I don't 
think I even have Solaris installed on my SparcStation (it would be 
version 8, on my painfully slow SS LX).
