When the demo application wants to connect, it can load all the necessary JS from the HTTPService resources, but it can never complete the Websocket handshake. Debug log gives me this:

I tried getting support from the Atmosphere guys but they could not give me any pointers. I found no related issues on the issue tracker and Jetty 8.1 seems well supported. I’d be glad for any pointers.
