title: Emacs - Error when calling (server-start)
body: <p>I am currently using GNU Emacs 23.0.93.1 in Windows Vista SP1. In my .emacs file I make a call to <code>(server-start)</code> and that is causing an error with the message <em>The directory ~/.emacs.d/server is unsafe</em>. Has anyone seen this and know a fix or workaround? ... other than leaving server turned off ;) </p>
  
  <p>Here is the stack trace:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "The directory ~/.emacs.d/server is unsafe")
    signal(error ("The directory ~/.emacs.d/server is unsafe"))
    error("The directory %s is unsafe" "~/.emacs.d/server")
    server-ensure-safe-dir("~\\.emacs.d\\server\\")
    server-start(nil)
    call-interactively(server-start t nil)
    execute-extended-command(nil)
    call-interactively(execute-extended-command nil nil)
  </code></pre>
