Fresh Install read-only problem.

I just installed alfresco on my windows machine for development.  I got the bundled version with tomcat, and I'm using jdk1.5.0_12 and MySQL Server 5.0.  When I login as admin and try to add a user (the first step in the tutorial), I get the following error:

Please correct the errors below then click Finish.

    * Failed to create Person due to error: Access Denied. The system is currently in read-only mode.

Also, in the tomcat log, I see this:

12:05:26,312 ERROR [repo.avm.OrphanReaper] Garbage collector error
org.alfresco.repo.security.permissions.AccessDeniedException: Access Denied.  The system is currently in read-only mode.
        at org.alfresco.repo.transaction.RetryingTransactionHelper.doInTransaction(RetryingTransactionHelper.java:200)

        at org.quartz.core.JobRunShell.run(JobRunShell.java:202)
        at org.quartz.simpl.SimpleThreadPool$WorkerThread.run(SimpleThreadPool.java:529)

Any help would be great.  Once I get it working on windows, I'll be ready to try it on our RHEL server.  Thanks.

The log says:

12:05:26,312 ERROR [repo.avm.OrphanReaper] Garbage collector error
org.alfresco.repo.security.permissions.AccessDeniedException: Access Denied. The system is currently in read-only mode.

Which means you system is in read-only mode, probably caused by a missing or expired license.

I'm a newbie to here. I've installed the community version on my Mac. It's running, so I started with the Alfresco Getting Started Guide pdf. First I had to add a user to the system, so I followed the instructions, clicked Finish in the wizard an received this message:
"Failed to create Person due to error: Access Denied. The system is currently in read-only mode."

What could it be? If it's a license problem, where can I find the open source license and how should I install it?

Thanks!
