First thing I'd do is check your config file. Are you using the same config file as you did with 3.23? If so, you almost surely need to update it to suit 4.x, working from the examples that came with it. I don't recall details, but I'm quite sure that there are variable settings that will cause this behavior. You might first try one of the generic sample config files that came with your new version, just to see if it'll start up properly. Then try modifying one variable at a time, restarting after each.
