[solved] can't accept new connection from listen socket second time

Postby engelant » Thu Nov 03, 2016 10:39 am

EDIT: It's solved in the meantime, just works now as expecetd

every time when I post something like this, I really hope I'm not the cause of this issue. Unfortunatly I'm not working with sockets that often. And I haven't used lwip before, so I'don't know where my troubles are coming from.

This is some code, I can run locally, it works as expected. Only one connection can be served at a time, but once it's done, the next one will get accepted.

Code: Select all

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/types.h> 
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>

const static char http_html_hdr[] =
                "HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\nContent-type: text/html\r\n\r\n";

int main() {
        int sock = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP);
        printf("New sock = %d\n", sock);

        struct sockaddr_in serverAddress;
        serverAddress.sin_family = AF_INET;
        serverAddress.sin_addr.s_addr = htonl(INADDR_ANY);
        serverAddress.sin_port = htons(80);
        int rc = bind(sock, (struct sockaddr * ) &serverAddress,
                        sizeof(serverAddress));

        printf("bind completed! %d\n", rc);

        rc = listen(sock, 10);
        printf("listen completed! %d\n", rc);


        struct sockaddr_in clientAddress;
        socklen_t clientAddressLength = sizeof(clientAddress);
        int newsockfd, n;
        char buffer[256];
        while (1) {
                printf("Waiting connection accept\n");
                newsockfd = accept(sock, (struct sockaddr * ) &clientAddress,
                                &clientAddressLength);
                printf("Accepted a client connection\n");
                if (newsockfd < 0)
                        printf("ERROR on accept\n");

                bzero(buffer, 256);
                printf("About to read\n");
                n = read(newsockfd, buffer, 255);
                printf("I've red %d\n", n);
                if (n < 0)
                        printf("ERROR reading from socket\n");
                printf("Here is the message: %s\n", buffer);
                n = write(newsockfd, http_html_hdr, sizeof(http_html_hdr));
                if (n < 0)
                        printf("ERROR writing to socket\n");
                close(newsockfd);
                printf("socket closed %d\n", newsockfd);
        }
}
Now same thing on the esp32 results in being able to connect once, after that accept seems to block forever.

And this is what happens:
New sock = 0
bind completed! 0
listen completed! 0
Waiting connection accept
Accepted a client connection
About to read
I've red 7
Here is the message: asdasd

socket closed 1

EDIT: for some reason it worked another time, but I had to wait several minutes.
New sock = 0

EDIT: And after a few more minutes It will again accept a connection:
