Sim-eth-es connection errors

#1

Hello Everyone,

Every occasionally one of my clients connections will drop and throw this error message into the log file.

19:51:04,262 ERROR [ConnectionState] Connection error

I believe that port 4272 is the chat port, however I am at a bit of a loss on how to troubleshoot or fix this error. I've had it happen fairly frequently and any advice on a process for debugging/troubleshooting would be really appreciated.

Thanks, Mithrin

That indicates to me that the underlying socket dropped. If that’s true then there is not a whole lot the networking library can do about it, unfortunately.

Best debug why that network connection is unstable I guess.
