Problem starting DLNA server, error message "port xxx in use"

Hello,


I'm having an issue when trying to start DLNA servers (i tried Isedora, Flex) ... messages i get (with different servers) are something like ".... ERROR - Please make sure port 1900 is not in use by another application on the system"

iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

2 different softwares, but both seem to indicate the program thinks the address/port is alreay in use, when it isn't (i checked the process list in activity monitot)


Here is the Flex Error Log:
