We use:
executor -memory 12m -photo
and that seems to work (1.99p5).

Strange. Sometimes programs get confused when they run out of memory
(especially since it is possible that a program will run out of memory
under Executor when they wouldn't on a similarly configured Mac) and
then wind up giving bogus error messages. I'd try "-memory 12m" and
see if that does it (don't worry about adjusting the System Zone). If
it doesn't, perhaps someone on this list can comment publicly if
she/he has run into similar problems and found a work around.

Sorry I didn't respond earlier. I expected someone else on this list
to help out. At least I'm down to 20 pending e-mail messages from
around 250.
