 Jon, thanks for your help.
 This doesn't seem to explain why it sometimes works. As 
far as I can tell there is nothing _else_ on port 8007
 (and I haven't changed the port). 

  Hmm... Having looked into it some more there have been 98
java processes created. 'killall java' fixes things but doing
 this every few seconds isn't really an option :-(

This is what ps -e --forest says:

and this is what netstat says:
 (it lists port 8007 as the local port 91 times)
