I'm using gin to build a simple api server. right now, after the server started a few minutes later, all of incoming requests were stuck. After checking connections state , I got a message like below :
I already have tried to set c.Request.Close=true or c.Header("Connection","close") or both of them, but it was not working. I was wondering if anyone can help me fix this issue.
UPDATE-1 the way to start server
runtime.GOMAXPROCS(runtime.NumCPU())
//start serving
r := gin.New()
r.Use(gin.LoggerWithWriter(logFile))
r.Use(gin.RecoveryWithWriter(logFile))
r.Use(handler.SetResponseHeader())
controller.Router.RegisterRouter(r, cfg)
//r.Run(cfg.SvcHost)
s := &http.Server{
Addr: cfg.SvcHost,
Handler: r,
}
s.ListenAndServe()
UPDATE-2
after temporarily disabling the global gorm.DB instance and creating a new db connection for each request, this issue didn't occur any more.
TCP is waiting for you to close those connections. Probably you have read end of stream from them and have ignored it.

I am working on an application that tries to send some data to a remote server. Once I get the hostname, I get a connection by resolving the hostname using net.Dialer.DialContext. Once, I resolve the hostname, I keep on using conn.Write method to write data to the connection.
conn, err := d.DialContext(ctx, string(transport), addr)
_, err := client.conn.Write([]byte(msg))
Error faced: I observed that due to some issues, I was not able to ping my server. Surprisingly, conn obtained from DialContext did not complain while doing conn.Write and it kept writing to the same connection.
Can someone help me in how to modify my writing methods in order to get an error in case the destination server is not reachable?
From this UDP connection example
the best a "connected" UDP socket can do to simulate a send failure is to save the ICMP response, and return it as an error on the next write.
So try and (for testing) make a second conn.Write, to confirm that you would indeed get an error this time.
I am running a HTTPS server in Linux (RHEL 7). I am getting the below error as soon as I start the server.
2019/09/04 15:46:16 http: TLS handshake error from xx.xx.xx.xx:60206: EOF
2019/09/04 15:46:21 http: TLS handshake error from xx.xx.xx.xx:31824: EOF
This error is coming automatically and continuously in the terminal.
Below is the go code for creating https server -
package main
import (
"fmt"
"net/http"
"github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
)
func main() {
fmt.Println("Starting webserver")
router := gin.Default()
router.GET("/", func(c *gin.Context) {
c.JSON(http.StatusOK, gin.H{
"success": true,
})
})
router.RunTLS(":9001", "server.pem", "server.key")
}
We have purchased and combined the server certificate, intermidate certificate and root certificate into a single file to make the server.pem file.
As this error is coming continuously and in the terminal as soon as I start the server, I think there is some configuration problem in the VM?
Please suggest what are the things I can check here.
NOTE: This error is specific to the Go. I have tested on the same server on the same port with same certificates in Node JS. And it works fine.
Also the IP in the error message is of the reverse proxy server (WAF) which is continuosly doing health monitoring of the web application server.
I would attack the problem from two angles:
What is this xx.xx.xx.xx address? I'd expect that when I start some random piece of software, there is nothing to connect to it all by itself, right?
Is there anything special about that 9001 port? Try running nc -l -p 9001 and see whether those unidentified connections happen as well.
Run tcpdump and see whether there is any incoming traffic from the clients making those connections: those EOFs (that's "end of file") reported by the TLS mchinery most probably mean those clients—whatever they are—close their side of the connection somewhere amidst the TLS handshake—while the server is expecting to read some data from them.
This hints at that those clients do not actually expect to see TLS protocol in the connection they open; and they pretty much may send some plaintext in it, so you'll be able to peek at it.
Googling for "9001 port" hints at that it's used for some "ETL service manager" protocol—whatever it is. This hints at that traffic on 9001 might be related to VoIP.
I have no idea what to do with this, but it might give you some lead for further research.
I have a grpc server and client that works as expected most of the time, but do get a "transport is closing" error occasionally:
rpc error: code = Unavailable desc = transport is closing
I'm wondering if it's a problem with my setup. The client is pretty basic
connection, err := grpc.Dial(address, grpc.WithInsecure(), grpc.WithBlock())
pb.NewAppClient(connection)
defer connection.Close()
and calls are made with a timeout like
ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(ctx, 300*time.Millisecond)
defer cancel()
client.MyGRPCMethod(ctx, params)
One other thing I'm doing is checking the connection to see if it's either open, idle or connecting, and reusing the connection if so. Otherwise, redialing.
Nothing special configuration is happening with the server
grpc.NewServer()
Are there any common mistakes setting up a grpc client/server that I might be making?
After much search, I have finally come to an acceptable and logical solution to this problem.
The root-cause is this: The underlying TCP connection is closed abruptly, but neither the gRPC Client nor Server are 'notified' of this event.
The challenge is at multiple levels:
Kernel's management of TCP sockets
Any intermediary load-balancers/reverse-proxies (by Cloud Providers or otherwise) and how they manage TCP sockets
Your application layer itself and it's networking requirements - whether it can reuse the same connection for future requests not
My solution turned out to be fairly simple:
server = grpc.NewServer(
grpc.KeepaliveParams(keepalive.ServerParameters{
MaxConnectionIdle: 5 * time.Minute, // <--- This fixes it!
}),
)
This ensures that the gRPC server closes the underlying TCP socket gracefully itself before any abrupt kills from the kernel or intermediary servers (AWS and Google Cloud Load Balancers both have larger timeouts than 5 minutes).
The added bonus you will find here is also that any places where you're using multiple connections, any leaks introduced by clients that forget to Close the connection will also not affect your server.
My $0.02: Don't blindly trust any organisation's (even Google's) ability to design and maintain API. This is a classic case of defaults-gone-wrong.
One other thing I'm doing is checking the connection to see if it's either open, idle or connecting, and reusing the connection if so. Otherwise, redialing.
grpc will manage your connections for you, reconnecting when needed, so you should never need to monitor it after creating it unless you have very specific needs.
"transport is closing" has many different reasons for happening; please see the relevant question in our FAQ and let us know if you still have questions: https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go#the-rpc-failed-with-error-code--unavailable-desc--transport-is-closing
I had about the same issue earlier this year . After about 15 minuets I had servers close the connection.
My solution which is working was to create my connection with grpc.Dial once on my main function then create the pb.NewAppClient(connection) on each request. Since the connection was already created latency wasn't an issue. After the request was done I closed the client.
I'm studying Go for network programming. The problem is Go documentation is too simple. For example, I don't know when to use net.DialTCP, and when to use TCPListener object to AcceptTCP, what's the difference? How about client communicate with another client? Not client to server.
Connecting
In Go, you use the Dial function from net to connect to a remote machine.
net.Dial("tcp","google.com:80")
net.Dial("udp","tracker.thepiratebay.org:6969")
net.Dial("ip","kremvax.su")
net.Dial("unix","/dev/log")
This gives you an abstract Conn object that represents the connection you just established. Conn implements the ReadWriteCloser interface from io and a couple of other functions. You can use this object to send and receive data.
Listening
To listen, i.e. open a port, you use the Listen function from net. Calling Listen gives you a Listener object. Use Accept to accept incoming connections. Accept returns another Conn object that can be used as above.
ls, err := net.Listen("tcp",":1337")
if err != nil {
// port probably blocked, insert error handling here
}
conn, err := ls.Accept()
if err != nil {
// error handling
}
conn.Write("Hello, world!")
DialTCP and ListenTCP
These functions give you more control over TCP connections. I suggest you to only use them if they are definitly needed for your program as Dial and Listen are simpler, more generic and easily allow you to adapt your program to other types of network connections.
net.DialTCP is used on the client side to create a connection to remote server.
net.TCPListener.AcceptTCP is used on the server side to accept new connection (possibly initiated by net.DialTCP if client is written in Go). Note that listener may accept multiple connections, one by one, thus serving multiple clients at once (e.g. each in different goroutine).
Depending on whether you are writing client or server, you use net.DialTCP or net.TCPListener
Maybe you should learn about network programming in general first? Then these would make more sense I think.
In a go program, I want to run two web servers at the same time,
obviously they will be serving on two different ports (and ip addresses if necessary),
the problem is with the call to http.handle, when I try to register handler for '/' for the second server, it panics and says there is already a handler associated with '/',
I guess I need to create a mux in addition to the DefaultServeMux and I tried to do it using the gorillaMux but couldn't figure it out,
Is there something fundamentally wrong with running two web servers in the same program/process.
To make it more clear, one of the two web servers is a being used as a regular web server, I need the second one to act as an RPC server to communicate stuff between instances of the program running on different nodes of a cluster,
EDIT: to make it a bit more clear, this is not the actual code but it is the gist
myMux := http.NewServeMux()
myMux.HandleFunc("/heartbeat", heartBeatHandler)
http.Handle("/", myMux)
server := &http.Server{
Addr: ":3400",
Handler: myMux,
}
go server.ListenAndServe()
gorillaMux := mux.NewRouter()
gorillaMux.HandleFunc("/", indexHandler)
gorillaMux.HandleFunc("/book", bookHandler)
http.Handle("/", gorillaMux)
server := &http.Server{
Addr: ":1234",
Handler: gorillaMux,
}
log.Fatal(server.ListenAndServe())
I think you just need remove these lines:
http.Handle("/", myMux)
http.Handle("/", gorillaMux)
All routes are already defined in myMux and gorillaMux.
