WebSocket 1006 Abnormal Closure vs 1014 Bad Gateway
Both WebSocket 1006 (Abnormal Closure) and 1014 (Bad Gateway) belong to the WebSocket Close Codes category. 1006 indicates that a reserved value indicating the connection was closed abnormally without a Close frame being sent. This code must not be set by an endpoint. Meanwhile, 1014 means that the server acting as a gateway or proxy received an invalid response from an upstream server it accessed while attempting to fulfill the request.
विवरण
A reserved value indicating the connection was closed abnormally without a Close frame being sent. This code must not be set by an endpoint.
जब आप इसे देखें
The TCP connection dropped unexpectedly — the server crashed, the network cable was unplugged, or a firewall killed the idle connection. No proper WebSocket Close handshake occurred.
कैसे ठीक करें
Implement reconnection with exponential backoff. Use WebSocket ping/pong frames to detect dead connections early. Check for network-level timeouts or aggressive load balancer idle limits.
विवरण
The server acting as a gateway or proxy received an invalid response from an upstream server it accessed while attempting to fulfill the request.
जब आप इसे देखें
A reverse proxy or API gateway tried to establish a WebSocket connection to a backend server but received an invalid or no response. The upstream server may be down or misconfigured.
कैसे ठीक करें
Check the health of the upstream/backend WebSocket server. Verify the proxy configuration routes WebSocket upgrade requests correctly and that the backend is listening on the expected port.
मुख्य अंतर
WebSocket 1006: A reserved value indicating the connection was closed abnormally without a Close frame being sent. This code must not be set by an endpoint.
WebSocket 1014: The server acting as a gateway or proxy received an invalid response from an upstream server it accessed while attempting to fulfill the request.
