Hello -

I have looked in the archives and have not been able to solve this problem
with the information available there.
Solaris 8
Apache 1.3.19
IMP 2.2.6 / Horde 1.2.6
php 4.0.4pl1
modssl 2.8.3
wvWare 0.6.2

The Problem: wvHtml failure. But it works command line. I do get error
messages commandline:
 wvError: (./decode_simple.c:560) Alert, insane repeat "insane" character
run structure, making wild stab in the dark to attempt to continue
 wvError: (./decode_simple.c:513) Alert, insane repeat "insane" paragraph
structure, making wild stab in the dark to attempt to continue

Error message:

MS Word Viewer
      /usr/local/bin/wvHtml: wvWare: not found

Attempted solutions:
------------------------------------------------------------
1. I made explicit references to wvWare in wvHtml. Contents of
/usr/local/bin/wvHtml:
#!/bin/sh

prefix=/usr/local
exec_prefix=${prefix}/bin
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib

# argument checking
if [ ${#} -ne "2" ]; then
        echo "Usage: ${0} <word document> <html output file>"
        exit 1
fi

which wvWare >/dev/null 2>&1
if [ ${?} -ne "0" ]; then
    echo "Could not find required program 'wvWare'"
    exit 1
fi

/usr/local/bin/wvWare -x ${libdir}/wv/wvHtml.xml "${1}" > "${2}"

2. I attempted to set the reference in defaults.php3 to bypass the wvHtml
helper script entirely and access wvWare directly. Even after restarting the
server, I still get the same error message:
