Apart from the stray "e", that looks much like a mkstemp filename. So I'd guess it has a problem with your filesystem. If you've done a grep for any likely typo, check for a full filesystem or one with over-restrictive permissions. Hmmm, on second thoughts, mkstemp should internally replace those questionmarks. Looks your OS, and more specifically your libc, may not support mkstemp. What OS is this? -- Nick Kew
