OK. Thanks for the link. That explains what is going on although I'm not too clear on the details. What I was looking to do was set up an http session and when the browser went away use that a the trigger to expire the session. I didn't just want to set some arbitrary time frame to expire the session but if they just exited the browser or browser tab I could use notifyFinish to pick up the lost connection and I could then expire the session. I have'nt spotted any other info re sessions that would help with this. Thanks John Aherne On Mon, Oct 17, 2016 at 3:13 PM, Cory Benfield <cory@lukasa.co.uk> wrote:

I have been running some tests to check some issue and have seen that notifyFinish is not being called in 16.4.1
This is on Windows 10 using python 2.7.12
Checking back it is not called 16.3.0 but is in 16.2.0
The test uses some sample code from Twisted web in 60 seconds that sets a timer to allow the browser to halt the request by using Escape and make notifyFinish get called.
Before I did anything else I thought I would check and see if anyone else was seeing this behaviour.
Yup, this looks like a known issue: https://twistedmatrix.com/ trac/ticket/8692
