Out of curiousity, how do you launch these 2 programs and as what user 
do you run them?  On a freshly installed system, starting either one 
should create the directory structure you copied over from previous systems.

Did you copy over a home directory and forget to change permissions? 
That's the only way I can think that they would be behaving like your 
previous post suggested.
