[Spread-users] 'Connection closed by spread' ...

[Ryan Caudy]

Hi,

This error is usually caused by a failure to receive by clients to
Spread.  If your clients let more than a certain number of messages,
1000 with a "vanilla" Spread, pile up at the daemon without receiving
them, then Spread will disconnect them with that error code.

You may want to look at past posts on this list about flow control.

Also, on a side note, I would encourage you to use the most recent
stable release of Spread.

Cheers,
Ryan
