     I've run into the same thing, and it turned out to be an old version of
fpCopy that was lurking in the system and executing, instead of the fpCopy
that was in the fp executables subdirectory.  

     Check the date stamp that is on the fpCopy that is in your fp
executable subdirectory, and, if the version is current, search all your
other subdirectories to find the older version that is executing and rename
the older copy or get rid of it.

     Also, if you turn PFVER on, you should be able to tell which version of
fpCopy you are running.
