| Re: [jetty-users] Websockets being disconnected - please help |
Further to the below, today we discovered that the issue was down to a Palo Alto firewall which the websockets were traversing.It seems that the firewall was not interpreting actual content (JSON) being exchanged over the websocket as keepalives. We don't actually send any bona-fide keepalives as such (no ping/pong)... but we do sent content. Seems that the firewall was set up to monitor ping/pong and as it could not see any it was closing the connections.Just thought I would send this in, just in case anyone found it useful now or later.StuartOn 19 May 2015 at 23:14, Stuart Henderson <kryten68@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:Hi,I'd be deeply grateful for any assistance anyone could offer with this problem, which is causing me extreme pain.We have a Java test which instantiates websockets over which we are sending JSON requests to an Apache webserver. The webserver is reading the JSON which in turn sets the state for various virtual users.After the initial websocket set up and a couple of JSON exchanges the session can often go quiet for some time and the next communication might be as much as 50 minutes away. When this happens and our test sends a simple state change after about 50 minutes we get a websocket.closed() and an event code of 1006. Obviously the state change fails and our test is trashed.The 'client' test is running on a Windows Server 2008R2. We are running out of ideas about how to further troubleshoot this. A simulated session running in Chrome on the same server and talking to the same Apache webserver works just great, its just the Java test with the Jetty implementation that fails. The test, when run on a W7 workstation is okay... it seems to be the combination of Jetty 9.xx AND the Windows Server 2008R2 that breaks it.I've wiresharked the connections... but as we are using wss:// it's almost impossible to see what's going on on the wire. All I can see is that at the 50min mark the client tries to send the request and gets nothing back from the server. There are four retransmissions 1.2s apart then the session crashes out and the websocket.closed() is printed.To say this problem is causing us pain is putting it very lightly. Can anyone point me in the right direction with with how to troubleshoot this or get more information?Thanks,Stuart
