I had the same problem. In my case I think it was related to the part of ccp4 configuration that redefines python path. For some reasons (it breaks wxPython, at least in Hardy), I had it commented out and then after starting ccp4i I got these dbccp4i warnings. When I turned python part of ccp4 configuration script back on I got the same messages as Jan does - ccp4i window opens and then closes.
What solved the problem for me was to delete the whole .CCP4 folder (it may be enough just to get rid of unix subfolder). Since it was fresh Hardy installation on a new machine, I didn't lose anything. HTH, Ed.
