n8n - 💡(How to fix) Fix Lost Connection / Websock Issue [4 comments, 4 participants]

Describe the problem/error/question

What is the error message (if any)?

• error: all

TL;DR

The WebSocket connection to the n8n editor push endpoint is likely experiencing instability due to a timeout or configuration issue, causing it to drop every 2-4 seconds.

Guidance

• Verify the WebSocket connection timeout settings in the n8n configuration to ensure it is not set too low, which could be causing the connection to drop.
• Check the server-side logs for any errors or warnings related to WebSocket connections to identify potential issues.
• Test the WebSocket connection with a different client or tool to isolate if the issue is client-specific or server-side.
• Review the n8n documentation for any known issues or configuration recommendations related to WebSocket connections.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue is more related to configuration and setup.

Notes

The issue seems to be related to the WebSocket connection and not specific to a particular browser, machine, or network, indicating a potential server-side or configuration issue.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Adjust the WebSocket connection timeout settings in the n8n configuration to a higher value to see if it resolves the issue, as the current setup seems to be causing the connection to drop too frequently.
