Frank reported this as well. It's being fixed as we speak (write).

This is certificate/globus initialization stuff; I think Bob's looking (or
can look at this). He'll probably need more information to track it down
though, do you have a log from the client or server you can send?

There hasn't ever been a icon for the venue server, perhaps you can file
that as a feature request :-).

I'd be happy to help figure out what's going on here, but the log that was
sent was empty. Can you run the tools in debug mode and send me anything
that's coming out in the window you ran them in?  That'll make it possible
to track down problems. I suspect it's either initialization or installation
things that have bitten you. Are you sure you completely removed the
previous software before installing 2.1?
