Looks like it's related to the current working directory problem, that
user daemon cannot search the working directory (probably that directory
doesn't have search/read permission for others), or there's no working
directory set. I'd suggest either try making the working directory
world-searchable or, if there had not been a working directory set, try
putting a cd command or a chdir() function to use the, say, /tmp dir.
Hope it helps.
