Installing/setting up Unix app with Universal Forwarder

How do you enable the Unix app on the new universal forwarder? When I use the ./splunk enable app unix -auth:password syntax, the forwarder crashes (with no information written to logs). Any help would be appreciated.

Actually, there are crashlogs that get created.

[build 96430] 2011-03-24 13:09:43
Received fatal signal 11 (Segmentation fault).
 Cause:
   No memory mapped at address [0x0000000000000070].
 Crashing thread: HTTPRequestHandlerThread

Ill create a bug for this if there is not one already.

Genti - thanks! I missed the crash logs while looking at stderr.
