When upgrading from drweb 4.29.2 to 4.29.5 and later, be
sure to read release notes that comes with drweb.  In
particular, syntax of Socket definition has changed.

Instead of

  SocketMode = UNIX
  SocketFile = "/some/where/file"

drwebd now expects

  Socket = "/some/where/file"

Funny enouth, it will startup successefully with the old
syntax, but will not be able to reload.  While changing
.ini file to the correct form does not cure the above
error message (they're working on this), daemon will work
correctly.

Either way, this has nothing to do with uchroot etc.
