I've been using Prince 8 for three applications that require hardcopy from information stored on my site's database. PHP code generates XHTML files from the database. (The existing applications use no JavaScript.)
I have installed Prince 9 on my desktop, and it functions well, subject to some earlier comments about usability of the GUI.
I installed Prince 9 on my apache server (run by hostmonster.com) by downloading a 64-bit generic linux file prince-9.0r4-linux-amd64.tar.gz.
Since I can not run scripts on my hostmonster server, I unzipped the file and FTP'd it to /usr/lib/prince9; the Prince 8 install is in /usr/lib/prince.
Whenever I invoke Prince 9 (using the Prince 9 Class definition here: http://www.princexml.com/download/prince-php5-r13.zip, the application terminates immediately with no output. I did notice that permissions on /usr/lib/prince/bin/prince were 644, and changed them manually to 755 with no change in behavior. So:

- Am I using the correct binary? I can't tell anythng about what linux hostmonster.com uses, but PHP is configursd for 64 bits so I assumed 64 was correct.
- What other gotchas might be lurking in permissions to cause this? I can't see any logs that tell me why Prince 9 isn't firing and/or is quitting immediately.
Thank you.
