Original mail was:
Hello,
i've got the following problem:
I've set up a few shell-scripts which prepair some .pov-Files regularly and
everything works fine when executing them on bash directly. When i put the
main-shell script everything (creating pov-files, moving something around
...) works perfectly but povray drops out with
./mdf2navi.sh: line 41: 23667 Segmentation fault
/usr/local/bin/povray -GW -GS -GR -GD -GF 1,1,5.pov
Any hints?
Regards,
Stefan

Running such a job as root is not a very good idea anyways.
Try using su(1) and pass it the shell script
su - stefan -c "~/mdf2navi.sh"
(And do not forget the single "-" after su.)
See if that helps.

Hmm. Exactly which part of his message says that he is running it as root?
--
#macro N(D)#if(D>99)cylinder{M()#local D=div(D,104);M().5,2pigment{rgb M()}}
N(D)#end#end#macro M()<mod(D,13)-6mod(div(D,13)8)-3,10>#end blob{

Okay, right. It could also be user cron job.
(Probably I should not post after midnigt...)
However, the su - trick could work anyways because it gives
a login shell with all the nice env vars.
