Hi James.

The emma_ant.properties is not related, and the java.util.prefs
"error" is more annoying than anything else and points to a Java
installation issue.

Can you tell us what problems you're having with the server and
possibly provide the server log
(jboss-4.2.3.GA/server/default/log/server.log)?  If you've had
specific issues with the importer or insight, you might also provide
those logs (e.g. $HOME/omero/log/omeroinsight.log).

Best wishes,
~Josh.
