The file nohup.out will be recreated, as soon as you restart the software. As ElDiabloConCaca has already stated above, it is the redirected (terminal) output of an executable started by the "nohup" shell command. The software you have installed seems to use a shell script for startup. The nohup command line should be changed to something like "nohup whatever 2>&1 >/tmp/outfile.txt" which redirects both standard output and error files to e new file in the temporary system directory.
