Differences when running on local via running on a server

[Adidi]

There is some inconsistencies when I run my app on my local machine (locahost) then when i run it on actual server(with some domain) for example the new version 19.2 which supposed to send ping to the client automatically: in my local machine i get the pong messages from the client automatically (i console.log in the server the pong messge) but when i run the same version with the same code in my staging environment i dont get this ping-pong automatically and the client always disconnect after 60 seconds! Is this make any sense ? do i need to run the server in specific way when i run on production (lets say with ssl) ? why the same code on my local machine run differently then when i run it with specific domain in my remote real server ?

You are using NPM, aren't you?

[Adidi]

Mmmm I am using yarn - i have to use npm ? this is the line from package.json: "uWebSockets.js": "uNetworking/uWebSockets.js#v19.2.0"

Open the network tab in your browser console to look at the headers sent from server to confirm server is using v19, need to check that first

[Adidi]

This is not browser -it's mobile application and I am sure its running v19 - I see even in the server itself the files. Could it be something with nginx reverse proxy configuration in my server ? In my local machine I am connecting to node itself via port but in my server I have nginx running this node as a reverse proxy. this is my configuration:

http {
   map $http_upgrade $connection_upgrade {
      default upgrade;
      '' close;
   }
   upstream websocket {
      server 127.0.0.1:9006;
   }
   server {
      listen 80;
      server_name chat.mydomain.com;

      location / {
         proxy_pass http://websocket;
         proxy_http_version 1.1;
         proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
         proxy_set_header Connection $connection_upgrade;
      }
   }
}

The connection works well - i can connect to this server web socket but i disconnect every minute regardless and if the phone goes idle it also always disconnected. Could it be nginx configuration problem ?

Is your idleTimeout set to 60 seconds? You said it disconnects after 60 seconds, the default is 120

[Adidi]

@hst-m I didn't set it at all. Since v19 sends pings automatically so I want to work with the default why should i change it ?

[hst-m]

Ok you missed the point, something else is disconnecting the connection because uWS closes connection after 120 seconds

[Adidi]

Ok I think i find the problem - it is nginx configuration - you need to add proxy_read_timeout this is my configuration now:

location / {
            proxy_pass http://websocket;
            proxy_http_version 1.1;
            proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
            proxy_set_header Connection $connection_upgrade;
            proxy_set_header Host $host;
            proxy_read_timeout 7d;
        }

and i get the pong again.

Thanks !

Yep that was it, proxy_read_timeout defaults to 60 seconds
