Keep on getting websocket connected and disconnected: LiveView session was misconfigured or the user token is outdated
In a pretty basic phoenix app running on localhost I keep on getting the websocket connected and disconnected while the server’s phoenix_live_view/channel.ex:1034 is reporting this in the debug log:
LiveView session was misconfigured or the user token is outdated.
1) Ensure your session configuration in your endpoint is in a module attribute:
@session_options [
...
]
2) Change the `plug Plug.Session` to use said attribute:
plug Plug.Session, @session_options
3) Also pass the `@session_options` to your LiveView socket:
socket "/live", Phoenix.LiveView.Socket,
websocket: [connect_info: [session: @session_options]]
4) Ensure the `protect_from_forgery` plug is in your router pipeline:
plug :protect_from_forgery
5) Define the CSRF meta tag inside the `<head>` tag in your layout:
<meta name="csrf-token" content={Plug.CSRFProtection.get_csrf_token()} />
6) Pass it forward in your app.js:
let csrfToken = document.querySelector("meta[name='csrf-token']").getAttribute("content");
let liveSocket = new LiveSocket("/live", Socket, {params: {_csrf_token: csrfToken}});
I checked that all the steps outlined are implemented, but this doesn’t help, and the client’s websocket connection keeps on bouncing. The “_csrf_token” stays the same between consecutive websocket connections, but it seems that the csrf check fails.
Has anyone experienced it, and if so, can you suggest a solution?
