My script fails after one successful send/receive with "cannot determine peer address". I found a a stackoverflow post which suggests that something could be wrong with the args used (in that case, the problem was an illegal value, 255.255.255.255, as peer address).

Any ideas where the problem could be? 

#server script
use Modern::Perl;
use EV;
use AnyEvent;
use IO::Socket::INET;
my $project = my $config = my $text = my $this_engine = {} ;
$config->{remote_control_port} = 57000;

start_remote();
EV::run();
sub start_remote {
    my $port = $config->{remote_control_port};
    say "Starting remote control listener on port $port";
    my $in = $project->{remote_control_socket} = IO::Socket::INET->new
+( qw(LocalAddr localhost LocalPort), $port, qw(Proto tcp Type), SOCK_
+STREAM, qw(Listen 1 Reuse 1) ) || die $!;
    $this_engine->{events}->{remote_control} = AE::io( $in, 0, \&proce
+ss_remote_command )
}
sub process_remote_command {
    my $in = $project->{remote_control_socket};
    my $socket = $in->accept;
    $socket->recv(my $input, $in->sockopt(SO_RCVBUF));
    logpkg('debug',"Got remote control input: $input");
    $socket->send(process_command($input));
}
sub logpkg { say join " ", @_ }
sub process_command { "processed: ". shift } 

# client script


use Modern::Perl;
use IO::Socket::INET;
my $tcp = IO::Socket::INET->new( PeerAddr => 'localhost', PeerPort => 
+'57000', Proto => 'tcp', Type => SOCK_STREAM) || die $!;
    my $cmd = 'eval $this_track->name';
    do_remote_cmd($cmd);
    do_remote_cmd("greetings");
    do_remote_cmd("earthlings");                                      
+

sub do_remote_cmd {
    my $cmd = shift;
    $tcp->send($cmd);
    sleep 1;
    $tcp->recv(my $result, 65536);
