Make sure that you not only set the permissions for the socket file but
also for the directories leading to the file. The man-pages for AF_UNIX
(man unix) state under the section NOTES:
In the Linux implementation, sockets which are visible in the
filesystem honor the permissions of the directory they are in.
Their owner, group and their permissions can be changed. Creation
of a new socket will fail if the process does not have write and
search (execute) permission on the directory the socket is created
in. Connecting to the socket object requires read/write permission.

You are using a relative path here. Are you certain about the working
directory of the interpreter?
