[Bug 1127553] Re: Connection closed without reason to the client

 

The patch doesn't make the reason show up, it would be nice if we could
get this to work. If reason info is not available, it should state that
and maybe suggest where to look for more clues. Not every hubadmin is
cabable of looking through code and determine what causes his clients to
disconnect for no apparant reason.

But the main problem in my opinion is: it would be friendlier for the
client if it gets a reason, just a simple disconnect doesn't provide
information to go on.

Meanwhile, looking at +info, it shows me that REASON_PLUGIN is currently
the most disconnect reason, so I'm guessing one of the LUA scripts is
disconnecting. Tracing this back leads me to autil.dump, which makes me
guess it is used somewhere without giving it a message to give to the
client. However, when I search through the calls of this function it
seems that every single one of them should provide some kind of feedback
for the client.

Title:
  Connection closed without reason to the client

Status in ADCH++:
  New

Bug description:
  When a client tries to connect with a registered nickname, sometimes
  the hub decides it can not verify the client's authentication.
  However, the client doesn't get any message about what is wrong and
  only gets disconnected. Meanwhile, while running the hub in dbg, the
  only message that is related to it is "disconnecting because 18" -
  also not very informative. Sometimes a password change may help, but
  even that isn't always helping.

  A session from dbg:
    W7OC connected
    W7OC ready
    W7OC entering IDENTIFY
    W7OC verifying IP xx.xx.xx.xx
    W7OC verifying CID VFXHSFHDWWX6BRBOTRT7NYN6DSDGQAWELQ4YHWA
    W7OC verifying nick DjSlash
    W7OC entering VERIFY
    W7OC disconnecting because 18
    Removing W7OC - VFXHSFHDWWX6BRBOTRT7NYN6DSDGQAWELQ4YHWA
    ManagedSocket deleted
    SocketStream deleted
