Looking at the mmfind.README it indicates that it only supports the format you used with the semi-colon. Did you capture any output of the problem?

There is even an example in the README for mmfind ./mmfind /encFS -type f -exec /bin/readMyFile {} \; But in the help for mmfind: -exec COMMANDs are terminated by a standalone ';' or by the string '{} +’ So which is it?
