I experienced the some problem and this is NOT a duplicate of #105199.

The problem is, that in the default config file the pid is configured to be stored in /var/run/bip/bip.pid but the /var/run/bip folder is not created during package installation.

The solution is simple:

sudo mkdir /var/run/bip
sudo chown bip:bip /var/run/bip

(I experienced the problem on Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex and Debian Etch, both on x86_64/amd64)
