Either some problem resolving the loopback like Toad said, or maybe your listenPort is already being used by something else?? This should not be the case unless you manually set it though (especially as you reinstalled which should choose a random new one.) All that exception means is that the ReadSelectorLoop or WriteSelectorLoop failed to init (should really be two separate catches IMO), somebody familiar with the code should be able to work out why faster than I could.
