Migrating Webinator from Fedora 4 to Fedora 9-64

I've been running a licensed version of Webinator since 2002. I previously migrated it from Red Hat 9 to Fedora Core 4. I'm now moving stuff to a new server and am currently running Fedora 9 - 64 on it (I'll probably move to Fedora 10 shortly after everything is done). Anyway, I used rsync to copy over the morph3 directory. I then deleted the license files, copied license.upd from my CD, then ran texis -update . Here's my output:

[root@louise morph3]# ./bin/texis -update
Texis Web Script (Vortex) Copyright (c) 1996-2003 Thunderstone - EPI, Inc.
Unknown Version 4.03.1049399699 of Apr 3, 2003 (i686-unknown-linux2.4.9-64-32)

100 Texis Monitor process child returned exit code 10
000 Texis Monitor process failed
000 Cannot get config settings
[root@louise morph3]#


I'm GUESSING that the move from a 32 bit OS to 64 bit might be the problem.

In any case, what do I do from here?

THANKS!

Problem solved! running rsync as root created morph3 with owner and group root. I changed these to apache, and all is well!
