ConnectionAbortedError

built-in exceptions

The connection was aborted by the host (a subclass of ConnectionError).

Syntax

raise ConnectionAbortedError

This maps to the ECONNABORTED errno: the connection fell apart while it was still being established, and it typically pops out of a server's accept() call — noticeably more often on Windows than on Linux. The right response is not to let the server die but to catch it inside the accept loop, drop that one half-open connection and keep serving the rest.

Examples

try:
    raise ConnectionAbortedError
except ConnectionAbortedError as e:
    print(type(e).__name__)   # → ConnectionAbortedError
