When client send_abort, server will no longer accept a client send_register

    Hello,

    When using UFTP, sometimes a client calls send_abort(group, "Error joining multicast group") - which I do not understand the cause of.
    When this happens the server (which is in the announce phase) will set that clients destinfo_t::status to DEST_ABORT.
    After this, the sever does not have a case to handle this client when it responds to a later announce.

    Is there some setting that I can use on the client or server side to either resolve this or diagnose this further?

    Thanks.

    The client should be printing a message stating why it can't join the multicast group. Take a look at that to figure out what do to next.

    Unfortunately, the log got rolled over and I don't have the prior file.

    Perhaps you might also consider throttling the logging, in this case my log begins;
    2019/11/25 09:06:41.100985: Switch to new log complete
    2019/11/25 09:06:41.100985: [A23623A0/00:0]: Expected REG_CONF, got FILESEG
    2019/11/25 09:06:41.100985: [A23623A0/00:0]: Expected REG_CONF, got FILESEG
    2019/11/25 09:06:41.100985: [A23623A0/00:0]: Expected REG_CONF, got FILESEG
    ... (71,000 repeats later)
    2019/11/25 09:13:11.441013: [A23623A0/00:0]: REGISTER sent
    2019/11/25 09:13:14.122641: [A23623A0/00:0]: REGISTER sent

    Locally I will throttle the logging and see how that helps.

    Sorry - the bit following the 71,000 repeats was snipped incorrectly, but the 71,000 bit was correct
