[achingbrain]

• Version: 0.30.x
• Platform: os x
• Subsystem: ??

Type: bug

Severity: critical

Description: crashes randomly after some time

Steps to reproduce the error:

1. start a node
2. wait

Error: connect EHOSTUNREACH 2604:1380:1000:b500::1:4002 - Local (:::60783)
    at internalConnect (net.js:921:16)
    at defaultTriggerAsyncIdScope (internal/async_hooks.js:430:12)
    at net.js:1009:9
    at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/task_queues.js:75:11) {
  errno: -65,
  code: 'EHOSTUNREACH',
  syscall: 'connect',
  address: '2604:1380:1000:b500::1',
  port: 4002
}

May be related to #844 - something, somewhere is not handling errors properly.

Yes, I could replicate that error in #844 (comment)

A temporary solution is libp2p/js-libp2p-websockets#118

This should be fixed in node soon as it was already merged a fix, but we should still merge the websockets fix while it is not released and people update node:

• Unhandled 'error' event when connect followed by close websockets/ws#1835
• Unhandled 'error' event on aborted request nodejs/node#36931 (comment)

I released libp2p-websockets@0.15.2 with the error handler for this.

I am going to close the issue, feel free to reopen if this is still an issue with the update.
