Error "Task was cancelled" When trying to connect to a websocket

[sdroege]

Can you provide a testcase to reproduce it?

[Texlo-Dev]

My repository is https://github.com/spec-tacles/rustacles

To test it for yourself, you can run DISCORD_TOKEN=NTM1NTc5NTY1NDg2MTEyNzk2.XpB0Kw.TTFFbeGR7Jen7G_vkJCyPzEHBVA SHARD_COUNT=2 RUST_LOG=debug cargo run --example sharder

I'll reset the token once you've tested it.

What fails here is this line

async-tungstenite/src/tokio.rs

Line 239 in 70c7716

let try_socket = TcpStream::connect((domain.as_str(), port)).await;

It's trying to connect to gateway.discord.gg:443 and tokio just returns that error to us before we can even start the TLS (let alone the WebSocket) handshake. You should be able to reproduce the same with just doing exactly the same from your application code, e.g. directly calling tokio::net::TcpStream::connect(("gateway.discord.gg", 443)).await.unwrap() in Shard::connect().

This seems to be a general problem in how your application uses tokio. This error would happen if the tokio Task you're running in was somehow cancelled.
