What does error (1280) mean
GOAL:
What does error 1280 "Connection timed out on socket=<n> for usernum <n>, attempt disconnect" mean?
GOAL:
Connection timed out on socket=<n> for usernum <n>, attempt disconnect. (1280)
FIX:
When there is no other activity on a given socket, periodic transmissions are made to ensure that the connection is still operating properly.
If one has clients who "go away" without telling the server, the periodic transmissions will fail, and the connection/session will be properly terminate.
Some of the ways client can "go away" and not tell the server are:
i. The client turns their machine off.
ii. A hard network failure (i.e., cable problem).
iii. Machine hangs.
