Sounds like a memory leak from the client. You probably get it the
first time you open the form because that's when it's attempting to pull
down the .arf and .arv cache files. Subsequent times it just opens the
incomplete cache files, so no error, but you see the blank form.
You mention images on the form - make sure the images you use aren't
corrupted, or too large. I once used a .bmp file by mistake - the file
was ~1Mb - and that caused malloc errors on the clients. Best to use as
small an image file as possible - like JPG format.
Barring that, your best bet would be to uninstall the client, remove (or
rename) the install directory, and reinstall.

Subject: Strange Malloc failed on server error
I have searched this entire list and have not found anyone who speaks
about an issue of Malloc failed on server like we are seeing.
We are getting a Malloc failed on server error when we try to open a
Display-Only form. Here is the twist. The first time we try to open the
form it the error appears. If you try to open it again it displays the
form where the form is blank (no images or fields are displayed). To
further make this strange we can close the User Tool. Clear the cache
files (arv and arf) and then reboot the desktop and the Malloc failed
on
server error goes away for awhile.
Anyone ever see this kind of behavior before? I am at a loss as to why
it
is happening.
Environment:
AR Server: 6.03 patch 018
DB: SQL 2000 ver 8.00.818
AR User Tool: 6.03 patch 013
