Anyway, it looks like you are on GNU/Linux, and are trying to
start up an application without sourcing GNUstep.sh. Good. :-)
If so, did you add /opt/GNUstep/Local/Libraries and
/opt/GNUstep/System/Libraries to your /etc/ld.so.conf ? Did you run
ldconfig
as root ?
No, IIRC he's on Solaris, so there wouldn't be /etc/ld.so.conf.
If you want to avoid sourcing GNUstep.sh, you need to run ldconfig
every time you install a new library. That's the "native" pain you
suffer for going "native". ;-)
Adding the path(s) to crle(1) once would do the trick.

Starting the appication with
"/opt/GNUstep/Local/Applications/SmartClient.app/SmartClient" from
the
command line works. However, doubleclicking the item does not. The
application won't start. :-( I am stuck. Even trashingthe icon and
recreating it by startingthe app from the command line and
draggingthe icon
to the dock does nt help. All I can do is manually editing the start
command
to be "openapp SmartCLient.app" then it works. But I don't want to do
that
for 7 apps and 30 users. Any idea why thi sno longer works.
"/opt/GNUstep/Local/Applications/SmartClient.app/SmartClient" should
do,
shouldn't it. What can be the difference between startingthe app from
the
command line and clickingthe window maker dock icon?
Yes it should do.
It might be a good idea the try and find out what the application (or
GNUstep) is dumping to the console or syslog during startup of the
application as to why it fails.
Where and when does the GNUstep.[c]sh get sourced in? If you don't
want to add the sourcing to the users' profile files, you could add it
to the system wide profile in /etc.
How does WindowMaker get started? You might want to consider adding
the sourcing to that startup procedure, right before WM gets launched.
