IIUC, you're saying that with

;;; .emacs
(server-start)
;;; end of .emacs

and running two emacs at once, the second one throws an error.

That's a feature. If you want to be sure that the most recent Emacs
instance is the current server, you can use

;;; .emacs
(server-force-delete)
(server-start)
;;; end of .emacs

If that's not what you meant, please post detailed instructions to
reproduce the problem.

TIA,

    Juanma
