First off, FreeBSD is outside my knowledge base. I know windows, linux and MacOS so my assumptions might a bit off.
I'd check the config file and make sure the directory base is set correctly. I'm no perl expert, but it would appear that perl or assp.pl is unhappy because it cannot reference a file descriptor that was there but is now invalid. So I'd check the file permissions on all files concerning assp starting with /var/db/assp. Start with 777 and work back to the original file permissions. I'd also compare the versions of perl and the perl modules between the working and not-working assp server. It's kind of sounds like a perl bug. Sorry I couldn't be more help. Good luck.
