Question

I’m trying to get http://www.gelens.org/code/gevent-websocket/ running and keep getting the following error.

socket_id=1 already closed.
    result = self._run(*self.args, **self.kwargs)

I get this same bug with gevent-websocket 0.3.4 and gevent 0.13.6 when running the gunicorn -k "geventwebsocket.gunicorn.workers.GeventWebSocketWorker" example:app example.

The problem comes from a mismatch of expectations between gevent and gunicorn. Gevent’s pywsgi module expects a logger object which implements a write method, like file objects, stdout, etc. Gunicorn, however, passes in an object which has Logger methods (debug, info, error, critical, warning, etc).

The problem code in pywsgi:

def log_request(self):
    log = self.server.log
    if log:
        log.write(self.format_request() + '\n')

To fix this for myself, I hacked up the lines in a fork of gevent and changed them to the following:

def log_request(self):
    log = self.server.log
    if log:
        if hasattr(log, "info"):
            log.info(self.format_request() + '\n')
        else:
            log.write(self.format_request() + '\n')
