I have killed a byobu
session accidentally (kill -9 byobuSessionId), and now when I try to start another byobu
command fails with "can't create socket".
Also tmux new-session
returns: "can't create socket"
I have tried sudo service screen-cleanup start
without success !
Any idea how can I solve it ?

Problem occurs maybe by dead tmux process if you check output for strace -f -e trace=file tmux command.
You see socket file created by tmux, in my case is located on /tmp//tmux-1001/default/
You simply delete this file and run again byobu command.
