Rob, OSCAR does not require a user to download/install the OSCAR packages (e.g., torque, ganglia, and so on) manually and even worse, this may cause some RPM dependency issues which suppose to be handled by OSCAR while the OSCAR packages are being installed.
Anyway, I am not sure if this may help you much or not, I would just start over by running on $OSCAR_HOME/scripts/start_over and see what error happens with some verbose logs (export OSCAR_VERBOSE=5) and then post the logs to the lists.
