I'm trying to connect, read and write from a UNIX socket in Ruby. It is a stats socket used by haproxy.
My code is the following:
require 'socket'
socket = UNIXSocket.new("/tmp/haproxy.stats.socket")
# First attempt: works
socket.puts("show stat")
while(line = socket.gets) do
puts line
end
# Second attemp: fails
socket.puts("show stat")
while(line = socket.gets) do
puts line
end
It succeeds the first time, but on the second attempt fails. I'm not sure why.

What is the problem? Is there a good reference to using UNIX sockets and Ruby?
