I think this means that your system believes that your :1 display is
already in use.  Is Xvnc :1 already running?  If no, does this file exist?

/tmp/.X11-unix/X1

I'm no expert, but I think that could be blocking your socket.  If you
look at this:

ls -lF /tmp/.X11-unix/X1

you will see an equal sign.  Read 'man ls' and look at the -F info about
the equal sign.  It says something about AF_UNIX.  Read 'man socket'.  It
says something about this:

AF_UNIX        File system pathnames

I think, if Xvnc :1 is definitely not running, you should delete
/tmp/.X11-unix/X1 if it exists, and that will fix your problem.

Also remember that you have to wait about 5 minutes after killing an old
Xvnc :1 before you can start another Xvnc :1.
