For now I'll assume you are running as root and using a new version
of gpsd.

Why are you using a socket and a pipe?  The usual reason to use a socket
is just to add GPS devices without restarting gpsd.  You should also
be using -n to avoid repeated open/closes of the pipe.

What are te file permissions on  /var/www/pipes/Q_server_pipe?
What is conected to the other end of  /var/www/pipes/Q_server_pipe?
