signalhubs are not working #135

Closed Flet closed 9 years ago

Flet commented 9 years ago

Not sure what exactly the issue is, but I'm having no luck getting any peers. I suspect there may be problems with all of the default signalhubs:

      'https://signalhub.publicbits.org',
      'https://signalhub.mafintosh.com',
      'https://beaugunderson.com/signalhub',
      'http://dev.mathiasbuus.eu:8080' // deprecated

I tested each one separately as a single hub and still had no luck connecting two peers.

However, I spun up a little hub of my own (http://flet.io:8081) and was able to successfully connect two peers.

Can anyone else confim that one or many of the signalhubs are not working?

does friends connect to all of them or are they round-robined?

i just upgraded mine to 4.1.0, let's see if that does anything (max' is 3.4.0 and mathias' is 4.0.2, mine was running 4.0.0 prior to right now)

Still at 0 peers, but I'm on a personal telco (pdx) connection right now.

I'm also stuck at zero peers on a fresh install.

hackergrrl commented 9 years ago

Sanity check: are there people actually actively running friends or peerbot?

ungoldman commented 9 years ago

I have not run it in a long while. It's very possible no one is currently running it.

Last I heard we were waiting on a chrome webRTC memory leak (that caused hubs to crash eventually) to be fixed. I don't have any detail links off hand atm.

bnolan commented 9 years ago

Any more details on this webrtc leak? I've been working on a similair app using a chrome extension that uses peer.js in a background page and it has run for a few days pretty reliably. Any pointers on what to look for?

I fixed the existing signalhub issues in Friends for now. App should be working now. friend-swarm needs some more perf testing with large swarms though
