Cannot access Progress OpenEdge db on RHEL 5.7

Hi!
I have been given a new server to work with that has RHEL 5.7 Tikanga. I am able to build my OpenEdge database, but I cannot access it. Any attempt to launch a session (pro my_db) results in a lock file, but no session. It simply returns back to the command prompt. There is no log file created to even track an error. If I scroll up from the command, I see the welcome screen and nothing else. The lock file does not get removed either. Error messages would be good, but without them I am lost. I am thinking that it is permission related, but I do not see how.

Any ideas?

Actually, I did perform a copy. I had done this with the last server (5.5 Tikanga) and, since I was able to build the database, I did not think the copy was an issue. I was trying to make the install faster, but ... if that is what is wrong, it is correctable. It is odd though that I am getting no error messages.
 
Can you run strace on a process and then look through the output to make sure the correct files are being called ? Maybe it can't find promsgs if no output is displayed.

We copy installs around on Linux and don't have any issues - we have a few scripts that update locations and other items so we don't forget anything.
