Hi,
Indesign Server 7.03 on OSX 10.5.8 Intel Xserve.
When Indesign server CS5 is launched at boot (or with launchctl) it crashes with the following errror in the system log:

When launched while logged on, it launches ok.
Here's the content of the plist file used to launch ID Server:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"

Please advice.
