error installing alfresco on tomcat and sqlserver

[nuga]

Hello all,
Currently running  tomcat 5.5.17 and sql server 2000
i was able to do make it work for 1.4 so i would assume it would also work for 2.0

But i'm running to this error.  Can someone explain what this means and where i should start looking to resolve this issue.

java.rmi.server.ExportException: internal error: ObjID already in use

Here are my thoughts on the issue.
"java.rmi.server.ExportException: internal error: ObjID already in use"
this error occurs when the port is already busy.. as a quick google search of the exception shows.. you cannot start more than one registry in one JVM.

ON a deploy of alfresco. it tries to detect the rmi registry in the jvm..
if it cannot detect it creates a new one..

My thoughts are according to this log..
it cannot find the rmi registry.. so it creates a new one..
then forsome reason 20seconds later.. it tries to find it again.. and cannot detect the one it just created.. 
One it tries to create it a second time.. i get this exception..



I made sure that the port wasn't in use before i deployed the war.  After a failed deploy, the port is still in use.

I'm not sure why its not working for me now.. i'm using tomcat 5.5.17

sudo lsof -i :50500
java    32449 root  113u  IPv6 1006690       TCP *:50500 (LISTEN)

any thoughts/comments would be helpful
