connect() succeeds but accept() does not?

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Please help me with this problem. I'm working on a time-sensitive project where I'm using TCP sockets. I've got this problem where most of the time a connection cannot be made.

While debugging, I see that the connect() call on the client succeeds but on the host machine it will just be stuck on accept (or just bypass it with EWOULDBLOCK if it was set to a non-blocking socket)

I'm not very experienced with socket programming, so I'm not sure what can cause this behavior. Also what makes it difficult to solve is that sometimes it works perfectly fine.

What are some possible reasons for this problem to occur?
