Local fix
Problem summary
The effect on alternate UA instance is as if the script is never executed.
Problem conclusion
On Solaris, we found that calling putenv with a local char array would impact the ability of the Script DP to fork script child processes because of environment corruption in the parent UA process. We avoid this by using malloc'd storage in putenv calls. To be safe, we've implemented this same logic on all UNIX/Linux platforms. Note that the problem has never been observed on Windows. The fix for this APAR is included in the following maintenance vehicle: | interim fix | 6.1.0.6-TIV-ITM-IF0005
Temporary fix
