PHP to Go using Unix domain sockets -

i'm trying use unix socket have php send ipc messages go. seems work, except php seems keep reading response socket, , won't let go. (the browser load-spinner keeps going, , there's no page render.) i'm using flag php_normal_read in php:socket_read() function, , explicitly sending "\n" go.

watching go process in terminal, appears work correctly on end.

edit: think browser caching issue. if send different data php echo, works expected. switched fmt.fprintln() make sure wasn't getting newline wrong.

go:

package main  import (     "net"     "fmt"     "log"     "os" )  const socket_addr = "/tmp/odc_ws.sock"  func echoserver(c net.conn){     buf := make([]byte, 512)     size, err := c.read(buf)     if err != nil {         log.fatal("read error: ", err)     }     data := buf[0:size]          fmt.println("server received: ", string(data))      // new code     t := time.now()     retmsg := fmt.sprintf("ok+ @ %s", t)     size, err = fmt.fprintln(c, retmsg)           //size, err = c.write(ok)      if err == nil{         fmt.println("wrote many bytes: ", size)     } else {         log.fatal("write error: ", err)     } }  func main(){     l, err := net.listen("unix", socket_addr)     if err != nil{         fmt.println("on noes: %s", err)         return     }     defer l.close()     for{         fd, err := l.accept()         if err != nil{             log.fatal("accept error", err)         }         go echoserver(fd)     }  } 

php:

ob_implicit_flush(); $socket_file = "/tmp/odc_ws.sock";  if (($socket = socket_create(af_unix, sock_stream, 0)) === false) {     echo "socket_create() failed: reason: " . socket_strerror(socket_last_error()) . "<br>"; } if (socket_connect($socket, $socket_file) === false) {     echo "socket_connect() failed: reason: " . socket_strerror(socket_last_error($sock)) . "<br>"; }  $msg = 'php sent go message @ ' . date('h:i:s'); $write_res = socket_write($socket, $msg, $msg_len = strlen($msg)); if($write_res != $msg_len){     echo '<div>socket write error: ' . socket_strerror( socket_last_error($socket) ) . '</div>'; }  while($read = socket_read($socket, 512, php_normal_read)){     echo "<div>server says: $read</div>"; } socket_close($socket); 

it not php issue; not closing server connection, php continues wait more data. add defer c.close():

func echoserver(c net.conn){     defer c.close()      buf := make([]byte, 512)     size, err := c.read(buf)     if err != nil { 

php_normal_read force socket_read read lines of text rather binary streams.

from php docs on socket_read (emphasis mine)

socket_read() returns data string on success, or false on error (including if remote host has closed connection)
