Hi, I have a fairly simple twisted daemon based on the starpy protocol, which I am running in combination with the asterisk pbx. I sometimes this daemon accumulates CLOSE_WAIT connections in a rather unpredictable fashion, which when stacked up eventually cause the daemon to stop responding to new connections. My understanding is that there is no default timeout for the CLOSE_WAIT socket state, as per the relevant rfc standard, and that in any netstat declares that CLOSE_WAIT indicates that the remote end of the connection has shut down, and that it is now up to the local application to finish closing the socket. The implication is that there is something wrong with my application code, however before posting the whole thing I'd like to know if there are any cannonical reasons for this kind of issue being raised in twisted applications. For instance is this likely to occur when one uses defertothread for blocking third party code, and the child process spawned to handle this returns to find the parent process already gone? ( e.g. my twisted app spawns for a new call from asterisk, but the call instance is destroyed for some reason before the defertothread that it executes returns?) I'm having trouble reliably causing the issue, but it continues to pop up, so any general information about regarding debugging twisted applications would be of help. Thanks!
