I have seen similar behavior before.  Is your /etc/hosts correct?  The
localhost line should look like this:

127.0.0.1 localhost

Some of the CCP4 utilities act as miniature servers and bind to localhost
to communicate between the GUI and the process.  If this is actually the
problem, you should see output in the shell that started ccp4i similar
to this:

ERROR running script can not connect to server port (RunNotification)
SERVER_HOST  localhost SERVER_PORT 4441
