The heartbeat I install is from debian packages.
dpkg -l | grep  heartbeat
ii  heartbeat                              1:3.0.3-2~bpo50+1          Subsystem 
for High-Availability Linux
ii  libheartbeat2                       1:3.0.3-2~bpo50+1          Subsystem 
for High-Availability Linux (libraries)

version 3.0.2

I install the same packages and builds on all devices. I have an automatic 
installation. Some devices are installed ok and some suffers from the problem 
that the socket isn't created.
Is there a way I can create the socket from outside heartbeat (from perl or 
bash)? I have a watchdog and I wish to create the socket automatically in case 
the socket doesn't exist.

That's one of the first things the heartbeat binary does when it starts, If it 
can not create that socket, heartbeat will not even start up.

Of course, in theory someone may remove that socket after it was created. If 
so, make sure that does not happen again ;)

Where did you get your packages/binaries?
Double check your build?
lsof -n -p your heartbeat master control process?

Fix your installation.

Same packages and build?
