Hi carlsednaoui As the creator of SocketStream, I am very keen to know how this error occurred. I believe it relates to the ulimit issue Paul mentioned in another comment which was fixed some time ago (i.e. the file was there, but the user was out of file descriptors)... not sure yet.

What's your next step? Open-source the code, set up billing, improve the app (maybe move it off to a naturally-scaling cloud service)? I mean, it's neat (understatement of the week) and all; but where do you plan on going from here?

Hi, Thanks. At this point, I need to go and find some work as my bank balance doesn't look great. I'm going to continue working on it in some capacity, and I will investigate turning it into a SaaS. There are some components of the app which would be worth open-sourcing, in order to assist others with building SocketStream applications. Thanks again.

Can you please put up a tickbox somewhere, that says "I agree to get pinged via email once the service gets a clear commercial roadmap"? I'd really appreciate that.

Good luck with your other gigs as well.
