RE: Exception during FilterChain execution

Hi Alexey,
I call filterChainCtx.getStopAction() [note without arguments] in 2 places:

1. In the MultiLinePacket itself, following the same logic of the MultiLinePacket shown in the examples; note it is used for front end and backend filter chains

2. Right after closing the front end client's connection (connection.close()); this also causes the backend server connection to be closed

Please note that the stack trace shows the problem happens when writing a request to my backend server (I'm acting as a client here, in general I'm a proxy so I both a server and a client at the same time, using Grizzly both way).

Hope that sheds some light on the issue.

Hi Tiran,

do you ever call something like
filterChainCtx.getStopAction(multiLinePacket)?

WBR,
Alexey.

The object failing to be casted in our derivation of the MultiLinePacket (which doesn't implement Appendable of course, similar to the original MultiLinePacket).

Can someone advise on why are we getting this error and what leads to this flow (after all, the vast majority of the flows pass without a problem)?
