Hello all,
I use Windows 10 based laptop for my development. By default, web2py serves 
its content via the rocket server. 
My application makes use of the 'default' redis client () to connect to the 
local redis server.
I started noticing a stacktrace, in the cmd prompt, from within which 
web2py has started:

I do not see this issue on my ubuntu linux deployment.

I suspected, without any evidence, that it may have to do with 
process/threading between the rocket server to redis_client, and that it 
could do with the monkey_patching of socket in the gevent world. Again, I 
do not have any evidence, other than the stacktrace.

The knee-jerk reaction was to see if using uwsgi or nginx on windows 
alleviates this issue. The nearest discussion thread, that I came across, 
that talks about setting up such an environment (web2py without rocket, but 
uwsgi / nginx) is this one: 
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/web2py/nginx$20windows/web2py/NdV0CVX8zZs/wWiRxogLz4sJ

Any thoughts on what I could do or take a look at will help. Thanks.

In the meantime, I also intend to 

   - create a minimal app that is able to recreate this issue. 
   - take a look at the web2py's redis-cache.
