Thanks Steve. As you mentioned the problem was on perl decoder.

Thanks a lot.

Rout,

I suspect that the decoder "decoders/my_decoder.pl" is crashing when 
invoked in the second manner.  This hypothesis is consistent with the 
error-message from the "pqact" process.

The decoder process won't have a standard output or standard error 
streams; consequently, it must do explicit logging.  If it does, then 
look at its log messages for a clue.

Regards,
Steve Emmerson
