Did you have any luck solving this? I've just randomly got exactly the same issue.

[andrewhavens]

I never solved this. I reported the issue, then moved on to using a different tool. I would love to see this resolved so I could try it out again.

Look in the /etc/service/myapp/log/main/current file, it may contain a more specific error reason.
