Hi, I have this error everytime i run Alfresco, I can't even get to the login screen. Here's the alfresco.log
What is the avmRemoteService and why port 50501 is already in use??  I tried netstat -ap | grep 5051 but i don't know how to interpret the output:

tcp6       0      0 [::]:50501              [::]:*                  LISTEN      4718/java
