I’m trying to use a Server Socket add additional functionality to a web app on port 11234.

If I add and set the server socket to listen in my web app, pressing play to run it, the program breaks execution like it hit a break point except there is nothing to see in the IDE. I can click the play button about 8 times before it halts all execution. If I comment out the listen line the web app loads fine.

```
MainServerSocket.Port = 11234
MainServerSocket.MinimumSocketsAvailable = 2
MainServerSocket.MaximumSocketsConnected = 100
MainServerSocket.Listen
```

do you have code in the events for the ServerSocket?

maybe it can’t fill the socket pool.
