I seem to have a problem with client browsers to my guarded livepage application loosing their livepage connections. It seems that the guard session doesn’t expire, but the livepage system on the server side seems like it will loose track of the client’s nevow handle. This is under the Nevow 0.5.0 release, and it happens under both IE 6.0.x and Firefox 1.0.x.
I believe both livepage and athena currently have broken reconnect support, so if the server->client socket closes unexpectedly for whatever reason (the most common reason is you have an HTTP proxy with a timeout of a small number of seconds), the client will attempt to reconnect to the same livepage session with the same client id (as it should), but the server doesn't accept the reconnect attempt and throws an error.

Hi James, It seems to be that way. The connection I was browsing the page through was being port-forwarded through a PIX firewall. I've gone through the VPN (an alternative route that doesn't hit the firewall) and haven't run into a timeout issue so far. Any idea if there's a fix in the works, or if there is anything that I can do? At the very least, it's good to know that the issue is known. Thanks for the insight! Robby
