HTTPS | ESP32 | Core 0 panic'ed
Hello I have a problem with the library on the ESP32 platform. The situation is as follows:
- I start the HTTPS server
- I connect to the server using a browser - the browser makes a connection on 2-3 sockets (this is its nature and we will not change it :))
- TLS negotiation is carried out correctly
- GET requests are received
- Reply is carried out by me
- Sockets are closed (some with error)
- Error closing (Core 0 panic'ed)
I present the exact outline of the situation in the logs.
First of all - I added a few logs (CLOSING n) in the HTTPSConnection.cpp file in the closeConnection () method to better explain the situation :
The result is this debug:

Rebooting...
So my question is, did anyone else have such a problem?
To avoid this error, I have temporarily removed the line shown in the screenshot below. Will this solution not affect the library's operation?
File HTTPConnection.cpp -> int HTTPConnection::updateBuffer()
After commenting on this line, the problem does not occur.
Thank you in advance for your help. Greetings
I cannot reproduce your error by myself, but there seems to be an issue with the state machine of the connection handler. Just removing that line might solve the issue but it leads to resources not being freed correctly, which might catch you at some later point in time.
I'll have a look at it. What would really help me is if you could feed the backtrace ...
Backtrace: 0x401a91e5:0x3ffdd440 0x400e6d0d:0x3ffdd460 0x400e4c93:0x3ffdd480 0x401a6c3e:0x3ffdd4a0 0x400e6011:0x3ffdd4c0 0x400e362e:0x3ffdd6a0 0x400d7709:0x3ffdd6d0 0x4008bffd:0x3ffdd760
... into the ESP stacktrace decoder. If you're not using the Arduino IDE (but have it at least installed), you can call the stacktrace decoder for CLI:
java -jar EspStackTraceDecoder.jar /your/arduino/folder/hardware/espressif/esp32/tools/xtensa-esp32-elf/bin/xtensa-esp32-elf-addr2line /path/to/application.elf /file/with/backtrace.txt
For Platform IO, you'd find the .elf file in the .pio subdirectory in your project.
Hi, I believe I was struggling with the same error. You can see below the debug lines just before the exception and the decoded backtrace.

This error is well reproducabe with unstable Wifi connection as it is connected to session disconnections or other similar problems coming from SSL. In HTTPConnection::updateBuffer() closeConnection() is called when error is detected from SSL to clean up but the possibility of already cleaned up session is not handled in HTTPConnection::pendingBufferSize() and in HTTPConnection::loop().
I created a pull request with the modification I'm using: #89
I have been having the same problem with exceptions, especially related to poor signal quality.
I'm only using HTTP, but what I have tried instead of commenting out the closeConnection() call is to set a flag and do the closeConnection in the loop() code instead, based on that flag being set.
My test has been connecting to the ESP's AP, then back to home WiFi from a mobile. This was a sure fire way to trip up the exception, but not always. I have now tried this vector many more times than I would usually manage and have yet to see a core panic since just moving the closeConnection() action to the loop().
I note that updateBuffer() is called from numerous places, and this may well be the underlying problem given the async nature of some calls.....
In updateBuffer():
} else {
// An error occured
_connectionState = STATE_ERROR;
HTTPS_LOGE("An receive error occured, FID=%d", _socket);
_bShouldClose = true;
// closeConnection();
return -1;
}
in loop():
if(_bShouldClose) {
closeConnection();
_bShouldClose = false;
}
Because of closeConnection() the SSL context is released.
Flow:
- httpsserver::HTTPConnection::pendingBufferSize()
- updateBuffer()
- HTTPSConnection::closeConnection()
- SSL_free();
- Now the SSL context is released.
- pendingByteCount()
- SSL_pending() with released context
- Reset
- updateBuffer()
The following methods should check for a valid SSL context, before calling a SSL function:
- HTTPSConnection::writeBuffer()
- HTTPSConnection::readBytesToBuffer()
- HTTPSConnection::pendingByteCount()
With the added check, there is no reset anymore.
@fhessel just came across that too.
