That is normal when there are no volumes yet.

Ignore that, it has something to do with rotating the auth2.tk, which is
used to encode the Coda authentication tokens, on a daily basis.

That "ELF: command not found" message is unusual. The only way to find
out what is responsible for this line is to run

    sh -x createvol_rep coda_root ...

Check the SCM server name in /vice/db/scm, I guess that would be
desaster. Check if the name resolves to the right ip-address and whether
volutil can connect.

    cat /vice/db/scm
    host `cat /vice/db/scm`
    volutil dumpvrdb /tmp/vrlist
    volutil -h `cat /vice/db/scm` dumpvrdb /tmp/vrlist

Both of those variants of volutil should succeed if your server is up
and running. The first connects to the ip-address of localhost and the
second to the ip-address of desaster.
