Auto-reconnect causing repeated connections #917

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
We've not got repeatable steps to reproduce, but we notice the bug appearing in 
the following situations

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.   Connect to BigBlueButton via a wireless network (with some packet 
corruption)

At some point, the client will detect the network connection has dropped and 
attempt to reconnect; however, there is a race condition that can cause the 
client to repeatedly reconnect.

To other users, the client's entry in the User's window will flicker.  To the 
user reconnecting, they will repeatedly join (see attached image).

This is exactly what I faced when a user's pc goes into standby. He gets the 
same thing as the attached screenshot and for the rest in the room,it flickers.

Thanks

At the moment we've disabled auto-reconnect in 0.8-dev until we can figure out 
a way to not have this case occur.  See

And if I'm not a developer? What can I do? Is there a solution for 0.71a or can 
I upgrade to 0.8-dev? I'm a presenter and my connection allways reconect. So I 
can't use BBB :-(

Are you seeing the reconnect on a wireless network or wired network?

I'm seeing it on a wireless network. On a wired network it works fine.

Hi Zesmalik,

This is the wrong forum for asking questions.  You are commenting on an issue
