Broken Websocket #2678

Open atirage opened 3 years ago

atirage commented 3 years ago

I have a Gateway running on a LAN connection and a few WiFi connected WebThings. Recently I had WiFi stability issue, meaning that the WiFi was disconnecting and reconnecting automatically. Afterwards I realized that the Gateway GUI is not updating any more the WebThing properties. I suspect this is because I'm seeing the following in the log, multiple times:

2020-12-08 04:43:12.552 ERROR : WebSocket sendMessage failed: Error: write EPIPE

If I queried the WebThings directly through their REST API, the properties were returned correctly, so I solved the issue by rebooting the Gateway.

Would there be a way to automatically reconnect the Websocket or at least show on error on the GUI if the Websocket connection is broken?

The UI is supposed to reconnect its WebSocket anytime it closes, via this class.
