RosWeb.Endpoint module not available after compiling
I’m not sure how to best describe this issue, but I’ve started to notice this recently and I don’t know what changed that started to trigger it. Basically, anytime I save a controller or any .ex file (something that triggers the compiler it seems), I get the following error when the live reloader reloads the page:
[error] #PID<0.661.0> running RosWeb.Endpoint (connection #PID<0.660.0>, stream id 1) terminated
Server: localhost:4000 (http)
Request: GET /live/websocket?vsn=2.0.0
** (exit) an exception was raised:

I’m using Phoenix LiveView, but this happens outside of LiveView files as well. The websocket errors out a bunch of times before it recovers and it reloads the page just fine. It seems that this only happens in development, and only with live reloading enabled.
I’m really at a loss and don’t even know where to begin to debug this, but this throws a TON of errors in my logs while developing and is quite frustrating.
Is anyone interested in helping me figure out what’s going on? I’m happy to share code examples, but as I said, I’m having a hard time knowing what I could share that would lead to a clue to what’s going on.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

In case others are watching this thread, it looks like Jose committed a fix for this issue, tracked in Phoenix github issue 3494
If you’re not pulling the Phoenix 1.4 branch directly, it looks like it should go out with the 1.4.10 release (probably).

I’ve been experiencing this same issue as well, and it finally annoyed me enough to start digging into it more. (I’m not using LiveView, but a regular Phoenix project.) Sometimes it seems like changes I make trigger 4-5 recompiles, and then I get lots of error messages while everything recompiles and the live reload WS endpoint can’t be reached.
I’m looking into it more and will post if I find anything.

I’ve made some progress - but this seems very OS / editor dependent right now.
Overview:
- I’m on Linux using NeoVim and every time I write to a buffer,
inotifywaitsees 4 changes to the file, not one.- Because of how the elixir FileSystem and Phoenix CodeReloader are working, four reloads of the page are attempted
- Because these reloads take place while compiling is still in progress, error messages are logged because the Endpoint module doesn’t exist yet
Other random notes:
- I’ve tried other editors, including nano, but still get 2-3 inotify messages per file write
- inotify on Linux doesn’t have a “latency” parameter like the OSX filesystem does
- I couldn’t find a way to reduce the messages in nvim - my swap and backup files and stored in different directories entirely, and setting swap and backup to be off only reduces the messages by one
I tracked it down thus far by adding the following to line 22 in deps/phoenix_live_reload/lib/phoenix_live_reload/channel.ex
Logger.debug "Live reload event for #{path} and event #{inspect(event)}"
