Have you tried running "check_perms -f"? I had some similar problems with a
new installation and it turns out the permissions on the files and
directories weren't correct - that command should fix it.
Hope that helps.

I think the problem is trying to delete an open file...
Is there any reason why the os.unlink (in Switchboard.py) below couldn't
be done after fp.close?
def dequeue(self, filebase):
# Calculate the filename from the given filebase.
filename = os.path.join(self.__whichq, filebase + '.pck')
# Read the message object and metadata.
fp = open(filename)
os.unlink(filename)
try:
msg = cPickle.load(fp)
data = cPickle.load(fp)
finally:
fp.close()
if data.get('_parsemsg'):
msg = email.message_from_string(msg, Message.Message)
return msg, data
