dropping in an error message is (more or less) pointless. Please specify your environment, your command[s].

Are you running it as a user, via sudo or as root? Running it as a user or via sudo can cause the issue you are having.
Some reading.

If all else fails run it as su or root. Both work without a hitch. Running it as a user can be problematic. |
