Hi Erik, and thanks for the help. Well it appears to be a permission issue after all, but I really cannot understand why. I tried to change the directory for the sock file from /webapps/my-app/run/gunicorn.sock to /sockets/gunicorn.sock and gunicorn started normally. I tried to give full permissions to /webapps/my-app/run/ but still no success. I never tried to create the sock file myself and the /webapps/my-app/run/ dir is empty all the time. I cannot understand what is stopping gunicorn from creating the sock file in this directory.
