You need to call reset() on the io_service instance before you can call run() for a second time.

I tried this:

while (true) // PROBLEM: reentering this loop fails - why? { io_service.reset(); boost::thread t(boost::bind(&boost::asio::io_service::run, &io_service)); [...]

Now the reconnection does not succeed either and after some tries I obtain an invalid file handle error.

You didn't say how the first version or this version fails, an error message or some unexpected behaviour would help.

I guess I am missing some fundamental thing with asio ...
