I don't have the exact error message, but you can see an exception being reported in the stack backtrace:

Hi,
 If you are referring to the use of DuplicateHandle() in sock.c (src/mpid/common/sock/iocp/sock.c : easy_create()), it is to prevent child processes from inheriting the socket (if you would like to duplicate the handle to be used by another process as you mentioned one should use WSADuplicateSocket()).
 Are you getting any messages from your App verifier ?

Regards,
Jayesh

A socket object should not be duplicated using DuplicateHandle. For reference, see:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms724251(vs.85).aspx

The problem is that if an application runs under the control of Application Verifier, the exception may be reported and it will require expert skills to trace the cause - use !htrace from WinDbg. Without AppVer, no exception is raised.
