WebSocket 1008 Policy Violation vs 1010 Mandatory Extension
Both WebSocket 1008 (Policy Violation) and 1010 (Mandatory Extension) belong to the WebSocket Close Codes category. 1008 indicates that an endpoint is terminating the connection because it received a message that violates its policy. This is a generic code when none of the other codes (1003, 1009) are suitable. Meanwhile, 1010 means that the client is terminating the connection because the server did not negotiate one or more expected extensions in the handshake response.
Descrição
An endpoint is terminating the connection because it received a message that violates its policy. This is a generic code when none of the other codes (1003, 1009) are suitable.
Quando você o vê
The server rejected a message because it violated an application-level policy — for example, sending messages too rapidly, exceeding rate limits, or failing authentication after the handshake.
Como corrigir
Review the server's documented policies and constraints. Check for rate limiting, authentication token expiry, or forbidden message content that triggered the rejection.
Descrição
The client is terminating the connection because the server did not negotiate one or more expected extensions in the handshake response.
Quando você o vê
The client requested a required WebSocket extension (e.g., permessage-deflate compression) during the handshake, but the server did not include it in its response.
Como corrigir
Enable the required extension on the server, or update the client to make the extension optional. Check the Sec-WebSocket-Extensions header in the handshake response.
