Re: [Chicken-users] Spiffy crashes occasionally

[Peter Bex]

Hi all,

Spiffy just crashed on my machine.  The error I got is pretty lame:
thread thread2118 terminated with exception: can not write to socket: (18 
"HTTP/1.1")
Error: (tcp-accept) could not accept from listener: #<tcp-listener>

Apparently for some reason something happens to the socket...  Spiffy dies
because it doesn't catch any exceptions of this kind.  Maybe the error
reporting for tcp-accept can be improved to give some strerror(3) info so
we know /why/ this is failing.

Before these errors there was an instance of the usual error: can not
write to socket (22 "...") where "..." is 112 Kb of binary data.  If
someone thinks it is useful info, I can mail them the log of that.

HTH

Regards,
Peter
