Getting unhandled error and connection get lost when a client tries to communicate with chat server in twisted
- by user2433888
from twisted.internet.protocol import Protocol,Factory
from twisted.internet import reactor
class ChatServer(Protocol):
def connectionMade(self):
print "A Client Has Connected"
self.factory.clients.append(self)
print"clients are ",self.factory.clients
self.transport.write('Hello,Welcome to the telnet chat to sign in type aim:YOUR NAME HERE to send a messsage type msg:YOURMESSAGE '+'\n')
def connectionLost(self,reason):
self.factory.clients.remove(self)
self.transport.write('Somebody was disconnected from the server')
def dataReceived(self,data):
#print "data is",data
a = data.split(':')
if len(a) > 1:
command = a[0]
content = a[1]
msg=""
if command =="iam":
self.name + "has joined"
elif command == "msg":
ma=sg = self.name + ":" +content
print msg
for c in self.factory.clients:
c.message(msg)
def message(self,message):
self.transport.write(message + '\n')
factory = Factory()
factory.protocol = ChatServer
factory.clients = []
reactor.listenTCP(80,factory)
print "Iphone Chat server started"
reactor.run()
The above code is running succesfully...but when i connect the client (by typing telnet localhost 80) to this chatserver and try to write message ,connection gets lost and following errors occurs :
Iphone Chat server started
A Client Has Connected
clients are [<__main__.ChatServer instance at 0x024AC0A8>]

Where am I going wrong?
