http_server: Not receiving Websocket messages

When initially connecting, everything works as expected. However, upon reconnection, message handling becomes inconsistent. Sometimes messages are delivered, but this is very random, and often the reconnection fails entirely.

In some cases, the following warning appears in the logs:

WARN Failed to send message: write tcp 172.25.0.8:4195->172.25.0.1:57554: write: broken pipe  @service=redpanda-connect label="" path=root.output

Running config:

    - http_server:

        allowed_verbs:

Any guidance or suggestions on how to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Start by reproducing the reconnection behavior with the provided http_server configuration, focusing on websocket message handling and the broken-pipe warning. Determine why reconnections fail or stop delivering messages, then verify that repeated reconnects reliably receive messages without the warning.
