timeout doesn't work for WiFiServer.begin(links, timeout)

[atesin]

default timeout for WiFiServer(linksCount) is 30 seconds

when i create a server with WiFiServer(linksCount, 120) or whatever timeout, it still fixes at 30 seconds

i had to directly send espSerial.println("AT+CIPSTO=120"); and busy-wait for response just after server creation

• arduino uno r3
• esp-01s (esp8266 1mb flash)
• latest lobo firmware, with AT v1.7
• arduino ide 1.8.13
• wifiespat 1.3.1

server.begin has connection count and timeout. with debug prints enabled, is AT+CIPSTO logged?

[atesin]

not loged.... just observation i am making a programable irrigation system with relays, pumps and valves, configurable throught a telnet server with commands

i noticed it disconnects me in 30 seconds regadless the begin() timeout value, so i tried directly with serial->at+cipsto and works as expected

i will try enabling debug and report again .. never tried before

[JAndrassy]

could you please turn on debug logging and see what is happening on AT commands level? https://github.com/jandrassy/WiFiEspAT#logging

[atesin]

ok i have it, some lines were stripped for sake of clarity, i define all variable in preproc constants, so is easy to disable entire blocks of code if needed

#define LISTEN_TCP_PORT 1234
#define ESP_LINK_TIMEOUT 600
int listenPort = LISTEN_TCP_PORT;
int linkTimeout = ESP_LINK_TIMEOUT;
WiFiServer server(listenPort);
server.begin(WIFIESPAT_LINKS_COUNT, linkTimeout); // max_links, client_timeout

... meanwhile in serial console...

esp INFO: begin server at port 1234
esp> AT+CIPSERVERMAXCONN=5 ...sent
esp> OK ...matched
esp> AT+CIPSERVER=1,1234 ...sent
esp> OK ...matched
esp> AT+CIPSTO=88 ...sent
esp> OK ...matched

AT+CIPSTO=88 ??? o_Ô looks like octal or something

but this was fixed in 1.3.1

[atesin]

then sorry but i don't know why is working this way..... i have 1.3.1 in what commit was fixed?, what files/lines? ...

[atesin]

i see...

but why i have these lines if i supposedly have v1.3.1? , what could had happen?, meybe some problem in update system? (btw please take a look at #34)

my src/WiFiServer.cpp file line 28

void WiFiServer::begin(uint8_t maxConnCount, uint8_t serverTimeout) {
  state = EspAtDrv.serverBegin(port, maxConnCount, serverTimeout) ? LISTEN : CLOSED;
}

I just downloaded the Library Manager version 1.3.1 and it has uint16_t serverTimeout

[atesin]

strange ... maybe because i had patched files the library manager got confused with hashes/versions/updates :/

i will uninstall, reinstall and repatch (another reason add getLinkId() in official reeases ?? xD )

thanks for your time and effort, your library is fantastic!

hi i know this issue is closed, but i had difficults with library versions and reinstalliation,, and want to share what i had found

as arduino documentantion says i went to (myDocs)/arduino/libraries/ and deleted the whole WiFiEspAt folder, however when i restart the ide the library was still in library manager, even the examples were present and even my sketches compiled fine... so i as the lib were still present wasn't able to remove and install the lib again from the scratch

so i found there was a COPY of the library folder named like "arduino_4234234", so i deleted also and when restarted the ide the library gone and could reinstall (and patch) it again... maybe that is the cause of version mismatch also

i wish to share this issue if somebody else have a similar problem

[JAndrassy]

this happens if the IDE can't delete the folder of the library while installing a new version of the library
