Problems with starting the my sql workbench

I seem to encounter this problem in starting up my mysql workbench. It starts, gives the introscreen before you get the real worbench, then I get an error report and from then on it wont start.

this is the wb log.

It says my startup files are wrong. But where do I get new ones, or how do I fix this.

Sorry if this is a newbie question, but this is my first time using Mysql. I have had this problem before, but that time I removed ubuntu from my computer and I did rebuild my virtual machine.
