    What errors ?

It looks great !
It's obviously not water, but find a liquid with a high surface tension,
so that it does not wet the environment and that's it. 
It also seems to be rather super-fluid... Liquid Hydrogen ? Quicksilver ?

My only regret is that there is nearly no continuous flow:
 there is a opening phase, and a ending one, but no long lasting flow.

And I do not understand where the flow goes.

So that is how rubber balls are made. They just pour out the liquid
rubber mass on the floor, and it breaks up in perfect little spheres 
that roll away. :-)

That's pretty cool. I would make it a bit less bouncy and use more
particles, though. :)

I'm using 10000 particles here...
But it certainly still needs a lot of work, so I will try to lower the
elasticity (here 0.5).
The major problem here is to discover what is wrong with the algorithm I'm
using...
Thanks for the suggestions.

    I can't see anything that suggest there is anything wrong with your
algorithm... What's it doing that you don't want it to, or not doing that
you do ?

Look at the bottom-left particles at the end of the animation: can you see
those particles passing through the *wall* and following the hidden part of
the sphere?
(Does what I've said make sense?)
