It is running in a separate process, so I did have logout accounting
info.

I had also checked and double checked the "Peak virtual size"
to PGFLQUOTA - even tried increasing PGFLQUOTA anyway just in
case a gigantic allocation failed.

But after your post explicit talking about logging in and
logging out then I looked again and I noticed something -
the process is not running under the account starting the
process (SYSTEM) but under the same account as
Apache httpd (APACHE$WWW).

Slapping myself hard.

After increasing PGFLQUOTA on that account then everything worked fine.

A debug printf with a reference to file and line number
in the C source is obviously not up to neither VMS nor Java
error reporting standard, but given that SUN/Oracle stopped
support in 2009 and HPE in 2020 then I will have to live
with that.

So thanks.
