Ok. Final reponse, just in case someone else runs into the same problem. 
I tried running nessus from the command line, no luck, same problem. I 
also tried reinstalling using 'sh nessus-installer' method, same 
problem. I finally downloaded the source and compiled everything 
manually and that seemed to resolve my problems. Again, insert Outer 
Limits theme here, no idea how, what or where. I am just happy it is 
working again.
