Public bug reported: Ubuntu Version: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS package lua-socket:i386 3.0~rc1-3
On Ubuntu 14.04, lua socket settimeout does not work as expected. On a tcp socket, it causes the next receive to close the connection immediately. It works correctly on Ubuntu 12.04 and debian 7. To reproduce: install packages lua5.1 and lua-socket Take the echo server example from the introduction to luasocket: http://w3.impa.br/~diego/software/luasocket/introduction.html Put it in a file echo.lua and run it with "lua echo.lua" >From another window, use telnet localhost {port} to connect to the echo server Result: Immediately after connecting, the server closes the connection. Expected Result: The server should wait 10 seconds for input, then close the connection. package version that works correctly in debian 7: lua-socket:i386 2.0.2-8 ------------- A copy of the example (echo.lua): -- load namespace local socket = require("socket") -- create a TCP socket and bind it to the local host, at any port local server = assert(socket.bind("*", 0)) -- find out which port the OS chose for us local ip, port = server:getsockname() -- print a message informing what's up print("Please telnet to localhost on port " .. port) print("After connecting, you have 10s to enter a line to be echoed") -- loop forever waiting for clients while 1 do -- wait for a connection from any client local client = server:accept() -- make sure we don't block waiting for this client's line client:settimeout(10) -- receive the line local line, err = client:receive() -- if there was no error, send it back to the client if not err then client:send(line .. "\n") end -- done with client, close the object client:close() end ** Affects: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.
