file error, what file?

When I start my erlang shell, I consistently get the following error:
{error_logger,{{2005,1,11},{15,7,9}},std_error,'File operation error: eacces. 
 Function: get_file. Process: kernel_sup.'}

I forced a linewrap after the 'eacces.'.  Of course, date/time changes
on each start!

How can I find out what is the problem file?  The system starts and appears to
work fine for what I am doing.  No erlang_crash.dump is created.

I use the following script to start my erlang command shell.

---------------
#!/bin/sh

if [[ $# -eq 1 ]]; then
    NodeName=$1;
else
    NodeName=m1;
fi

export HEART_BEAT_TIMEOUT=600

/usr/local/bin/erl -heart \
    -boot /home/mmcdanie/misc/src/erlang/start_ssl_clean -proto_dist inet_ssl \
    -ssl_dist_opt client_certfile \
"/usr/local/lib/erlang/lib/inets-4.0.1/examples/server_root/ssl/ssl_client.pem"\
    -ssl_dist_opt server_certfile \
"/usr/local/lib/erlang/lib/inets-4.0.1/examples/server_root/ssl/ssl_server.pem"\
   -ssl_dist_opt verify 1 depth 1 -name $NodeName -s heart start
#% end

System is Linux kernel 2.6 (SuSE rel 9.1) using 
Erlang (BEAM) emulator version 5.4.3 [source] [hipe]

This just recently started after a power outage, so I have some small suspicion of file
system corruption, but how to determine the file?  I am using ReiserFS and have not known
of any problems after power outages before (though my UPS never failed before!).


ALSO, I have realized another problem which may be related.  I decided to remake my
bootfile and so did
$ erl
Erlang (BEAM) emulator version 5.4.3 [source] [hipe]

Eshell V5.4.3  (abort with ^G)

$ 

Apologies for two problems in one message (only because I think they may
be related).

Thank you for any assistance in helping me determine why my 'eacces' problem is occurring,
or why Erlang cannot find the source code.
