This traceback occured thousands of times *after* an OOM error: ``` general: Top-level error, please report: /usr/lib/prosody/net/server_select.lua:507: invalid value (nil) at index 1 in table for 'concat' general: stack traceback: [C]: in function 'table_concat' /usr/lib/prosody/net/server_select.lua:507: in function 'sendbuffer' /usr/lib/prosody/net/server_select.lua:893: in function </usr/lib/prosody/net/server_select.lua:877> [C]: in function 'xpcall' /usr/bin/prosody:374: in function 'loop' /usr/bin/prosody:405: in main chunk [C]: at 0x00404c20 ``` This error couldn't happen via that code path of `socket:write(nil)`, as the length operator invoked on the argument would throw before this point. (`bufferlen = bufferlen + #data`) Another suspect place for a `nil` to slip in is: ``` for i = bufferqueuelen,1,-1 do bufferqueue[ i ] = nil end ``` If there was an error before `bufferqueuelen` was reset, in the subsequent if/else chain then it might be out of sync.

Hi, I get the same error on version 0.10 for 2 days in a row, can anyone help me?
