Hello,

So I was really pumped that Websockets were working in Chrome with
play 1.2.4, but it seems that with Chrome 16 it is no longer working
(the chat example returns a "Unexpected response code: 426" error).
Can anyone confirm this/share any workaround that they found to get
around this? Thanks so much.

Cheers,
Haithem

Is chrome 16 the previous version? If it is the case it should just works, as it supports the hixie76 protocol that safari also support and it works on safari. Where do you get the error exactly?

I am getting the same issue. Using latest version of Chrome
16.0.912.63 m on Windows 7 x64. WebSockets still work fine in Safari,
but upon trying to open the socket in Chrome an error shows up in the
console that reads "Unexpected response code: 426". Using Play 1.2.4.
Haven't figured out a solution yet.

That's probably because they are using the latest version of the protocol that has been published 3 weeks ago. I will upgrade the web socket protocol. Is chrome 16.0.912.63 the latest version? How old is that version?

16.0.912.63 is latest stable and was released December 13, 2011.

Remember that WebSockets now is RFC 6455. According to Wikipedia,
Chrome 16 is using the RFC-version.

Netty should have RFC 6455 in a coming release, but not yet. I spoke
with the developers and they aren't sure when the next scheduled
release is.

You can pull from trunk which has RFC 6455 support passing the
websocket test suite.

Yes the rfc is 2 weeks old so you cannot expect it to be supported in play 1.2.4. It will be in play 1.2.5 and it is already supported in play 2

Where is the web socket test suite?

I'm not sure how they are run, but the test suite is from
http://www.tavendo.de/autobahn/testsuite.html. You'd have to talk to
the netty folks to get a better idea.
