Summary

During a K8s rolling update, a transient DB error on the periodic bot-session auth check (wsReader) was misclassified as a revoked/expired session. The bot was force-disconnected, handleLeave fired, and the recording was torn down mid-call.

Root cause: GetSession reads from the replica DB by default, and any appErr != nil — including transient connection failures during pod drain — was handled identically to a definitively revoked or expired session.

  • Split the auth check condition: appErr != nil now logs a warning and continues to the next 10-second tick rather than force-closing the RTC session. Only a confirmed nil session (not-found) or an elapsed ExpiresAt triggers disconnection.
  • Updated the corresponding test: renamed "revoked session" → "transient session lookup error" and verified that no closeRTCSession is called on a lookup error.

Fixes MM-69581.

Test plan

  • go test -run TestWSReader ./server/ passes (all 6 sub-tests green)
  • Roll MM pods during an active recorded call; recording continues uninterrupted
  • A transient GetSession error produces a LogWarn and the session stays connected

…rror

A transient DB error during a pod roll was treated identically to a
definitively revoked/expired session, causing the recording bot to be
disconnected and the recording torn down. On appErr, skip the auth tick
and retry on the next interval (10s); only force-close on s==nil or
expiry.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The WebSocket reader now treats session lookup errors as transient. It logs a warning and retries during the next authentication interval. It closes the RTC session only when the lookup returns no session or an expired session.

Changes

WebSocket session validation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Retryable session lookup handling
server/websocket.go, server/websocket_test.go
wsReader logs session lookup errors and continues until the next validation interval. Missing or expired sessions still trigger invalid-session handling. Tests verify retry behaviour and the updated missing-session warning.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 8617e

The change keeps calls connected through transient session lookup failures, but the current test does not confirm that checking resumes afterward, leaving a bounded regression risk. The PR is mergeable with owner follow-up to add a deterministic retry assertion.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Assert the retry, not only the absence of a disconnect.

This test registers one GetSession call and closes us.wsCloseCh before the second validation tick. A regression that returns from wsReader after the first appErr would still pass. Add a second GetSession expectation and wait for that call with a deterministic signal before closing the channel.
