#30 closed defect (fixed)

Deal with xpra server blocking on dead sockets

Description

Detect when an xpra server has crashed hard and is blocking on a socket. At the moment we call

dotxpra.sockets()

which may block forever...

  • Add a timeout in there so that we detect the failure.
  • We may want to kill those servers or/and remove the broken socket.

Added a patch to xpra:
​set-socket-timeout.patch

We may still want to catch the socket timeouts specifically and deal with that case more appropriately (kill the server).
