The continued "Unlinking stale socket" means that your "zdaemon" is dieing.


"zdaemon" is not supposed to work under Windows.

I am unsure whether this also includes "Cygwin on Windows".
Your observation may indicate that it actually does....


Try to configure logging for your "zdaemon" and look into its logfile.
If this does not reveal hints, modify the "zdaemon" code to ensure
that problems are logged to a file you know.
