SignalR Websocket Exception when closing client

When starting and stopping a SignalR client that is connected to a basic self hosted server like this:

async public void Start(string url)
{
    _connection = new HubConnection(url);
    _proxy = _connection.CreateHubProxy("hubname");
    await _connection.Start().ContinueWith((task) => IsRunning = true);
}
public void Stop()
{
    _connection.Stop();
}

I get the following exception when calling the "Stop" method (including trace messages):

SignalR.Transports.TransportHeartBeat Verbose: 0 : KeepAlive(c75fe282-a86d-406a-935b-5981b47bd472)

The setups itself seem to work fine and devices can connect, send, receive, and disconnect. But with every disconnect I get the ugly above exception. Any idea what the problem could be? I am using SignalR 2.2.0 and Owin 1.2.2.

c#
sockets
owin
signalr.client
signalr-2

Looks like a known issue which might be fixed in v3.

Try providing a TimeSpan to the close method to give it time to actually close while waiting for any async processes which may be in progress:

public void Stop()
{
    _connection.Stop(new TimeSpan(1000));
}

This worked for me.

Ok guys, I know its lame. I am trying to shutdown signalr client when the mainwindow closes and I get a lot of exceptions that I can not catch and my process hangs. So i decided to kill the main process on form close.

private void OnClose(object sender, CancelEventArgs e){
        try
        {
            var process = Process.GetCurrentProcess();
            process.Kill();
            //HubConnection.Stop();
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(ex);
        }

}

I solved this problem with

connection.Reconnecting += connection.Stop;

Because I found the connection state is always reconnecting

If I understand correctly, you want to stop broadcasting message when client is disconnected. So my approach is use Connection Lifetime Events in SignalR. This is the official page : SignalRLifeTimeEvents

public override System.Threading.Tasks.Task OnDisconnected()
{
    //-- When any client will close the browser or page this event will fire

    return base.OnDisconnected();
}
