PATCH 1/1 knotty: Improve exception handling

Currently, IOErrors are just passed over due to the broken Exception clause. A command like "bitbake X | <invalid command>" would break stdout triggering a traceback. With these changes we print the exceptions, shut down the server gracefully and exit which is a much nicer behaviour and is less confusion to the user.
