I have read this is caused by another instance running, but I checked and it's only alfresco running.

Could someone give some advice on how to attack this problem?

I have also run into this error when attempting to start Alfresco, generally after multiple start ups/shutdowns of the server.  Does Alfresco have problems disassociating a binding to the rmi registry on shutdown?  I also have not had any success finding a description of how to "restart" the rmi service so if anyone has any bright ideas on that front it would be appreciated.

The issue can be resolved simply by changing the host name of the machine which the rmi server automatically associates itself with, but this doesn't seem an acceptable solution.
