[SOLVED] Address already in use when sending message to websocket

I’m using the manifold.stream library to send a message through a websocket:

(defn send []
    (manifold.stream/put! mysocket
         (generate-string
          {:type "unsubscribe"
           :product_ids ["ETH-USD"]
           :channels ["heartbeat"]})))

and running (send) in the repl works. However, when I make an http request from a client, and have the send function as the handler for my reitit route, I get the error:

Syntax error macroexpanding at (home.clj:142:3).

The line 142 refers to,:

(def server
  (aleph.http/start-server server-handler {:port 8992}))

Why am I getting Address already in use?
