Socket error 98 "Address already in use"

[AK]

Hi, I'm trying to make a little mp3 server / client and I'm running into
a problem with the Socket error 98 "Address already in use". The error
doesn't happen right away, I can send 3-4 commands, disconnecting and
reconnecting and they work fine and then I get this error and the client
can no longer connect, although the client side doesn't get any errors.
Here's the relevant code:

        s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
        s.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_REUSEADDR, 1)
        s.bind((HOST, PORT))
        s.listen(1)
        conn, addr = s.accept()
        try: self.player(conn, addr)
        except: pass
        conn.close()
        s.close()
        del s


.. and on client:


    HOST = ''
    PORT = 50025
    s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
    s.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_REUSEADDR, 1)
    s.connect((HOST, PORT))


Thanks! -ak
