Setting the SO_REUSEADDR option should prevent that, and in my experience it always does. What OS are you using? Is there some reason you want to rebind each time? Why not just loop around the conn,addr = accept() .... con.close() section? > It'd be a bit difficult to separate it, I was hoping this is a known > issue and this description would be enough, but if that turns out not to > be the case I'll make a minimal working example. It is a known issue, but it's solved by setting the REUSEADDR option on the socket before calling bind(). Are you sure you don't somehow leave a server running on that port that prevents the bind() from working? -- Grant -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
