Unable to launch Local Server

[Boxel]

(Windows 7 64 bit, Java ver 1.8.0_25-b18)

When attempting to launch the Server by any means, I am unable to connect locally or even launch the server and receive the following Java error in the console. I've updated Java, run as admin, and tried everything I can think of. When I first installed XMage I was able to connect to and launch the local server once after many messages of "Unable to connect to server. Server is likely offline." I chalked this up to the server needing time to launch and get running, but now I cannot launch the local server at all. The client also spits out an error when I try to connect locally but I haven't pasted it here (mostly the same thing).

UPDATE: After letting the server client run for > 30 minutes without trying to connect or even touch XMage, it somehow corrected itself and allowed me to connect. The following snippet is from the same server console window that I've had open all morning.
