Hi, Tom: I am not sure if this is the same problem as you are having, but I had a similar problem when I tried to back out of a DSpace 6.0 install to DSpace 5.5. I discovered that for some reason that I had some remnants from the DSpace 6.0 install left in the PostGres database and config files in the dspace home directory (even after I removed all of teh DSpace 6.0 stuff).
In my case. I found that I had to drop the dspace database, and then recreated it, and then added the data from the restored backup. I did the same with the dspace home directory. It may be that you already did all of this, but that is what I found helped my problem.
