I've had filePro working on CentOS 4, 5, and 6.  There is no issue.

What I have't seen mentioned is the bit-level of the OS.  Moving to 64-bit?
Did you install the 32-bit compatibility packages?

yum groupinstall "Compatibility libraries"

Still, that would not appear to me to necessarily be the thing that's
lacking.  It's possible, but I wouldn't know 100%, as I've always handled
it up-front.
