Server manually closed but still getting errors from the proxy

[binarykitchen]

I manually closed the express server with server.close(), yet the proxy throws an error. I guess the proxy is not listening to the server's shutdown process?

I closed my server manually by server.close(), but node process didn't exited. It happens only when proxy-middleware is active. Proxy requests are still hanging around.

The reason for that is aborded/unexpectedly closed proxy requests are not handled properly. There should be something like

req.on('close', function () {
    myReq.abort();
});

While this code appears to work, it generates socket hang up errors.
