[BUG]1006 (connection closed abnormally [internal]), no reason

2021-10-22T22:07:37.643 daemon __main__                   : ERROR    Unexpected exception trying to send to websocket: code = 1006 (connection closed abnormally [internal]), no reason Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "asyncio\windows_events.py", line 457, in finish_recv
OSError: [WinError 64] The specified network name is no longer available

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Traceback (most recent call last):

websockets.exceptions.ConnectionClosedError: code = 1006 (connection closed abnormally [internal]), no reason

This error prevails even though I uninstall reinstall Chia 1.2.9 any way to fix this?

This looks to be a duplicate of #2810 (and a bunch of other duplicates as well, all closed). Chiming in a “me too” here, except that Chia is running on Linux and not Windows.

In my case, Chia is running inside a small LXC (Linux container). Restarting the container “fixed” the issue, at least temporarily. There is nothing helpful in the Chia debug.log file beyond the endless backtraces.

I do note that chia_full_node is consuming a lot of memory, more than 1.1g resident and 1.5g virtual. On a small VM, that’s dangerously close to putting it into swap space, and/or triggering the “OOM Killer” (Linux’s low-memory panic mechanism).
