Try typing these two commands:

  M-x server-force-delete RET
  M-x server-start RET

then try again double-clicking on an Erlang file and see if the
problem is solved.  If it is solved, then we can conclude that
something is wrong with how you start the server.

The line "(server-start)" is correct, that is how I start the server
in my .emacs.

Type "M-: server-process RET", if it says "#<process server>", then
the server is running, if it says "nil", then the server is not
running.
