I found a lead,  On servers with old FC4 that need format it is working no
problem. 

On boxes with cent5 OS final I get the problem. 


Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
Stephane

To be 100% sure it was NOT a permission issue I set the whole folder to 777
, same error. 

Thank you

Yeh that is the problem,

They are owned by the user I am trying to run with. 
And read /wrote / exec  permission is set for the owner. 

It work flawlessly on another machine. Same file same permissions that is
why I am a bit confused.

Thank you for your time

You certainly need to change ownership of your files, loged as root:
>chown -R your_user_name your_cod4_server_folder
(-R is for recursive ownership modification of files in subfolders)
