[OpenSIPS-Users] Websocket connection closes after tcp_connection_lifetime expires

[Vlad Paiu]

Hello,

I've just fixed on GIT the issue where the tcp_persistent_flag was 
ignored for websocket TCP connections ( as of commit 320c825 ) - please 
update your sources and the issue should be fixed, without having to 
change the tcp_connection_lifetime.

Best Regards,
