Logon to your system and execute


man recv

[...]

The recv(), recvfrom(), and recvmsg() functions are used to

receive messages from another socket. The s socket is

created with socket(3SOCKET).

[...]

RETURN VALUES

Upon successful completion, these functions return the

number of bytes received. Otherwise, they return -1 and set

errno to indicate the error.

[..]

Now you need to check your "errno" (e. g. /usr/include/sys/errno.h) for error 73. Apparently this is ENOTACTIVE.

The system is trying to receive data over a socket, that is not active/not there/already closed.
