Description

The first message works. (Send or Broadcast) but the second message always closes the connection in chrome with

"WebSocket connection to 'ws://localhost/' failed: Invalid frame header"

Oddly enough, Internet Explorer doesn't do this. (IE works fine)

I switched from C# Fleck to this and wasn't having any issues before. I really liked how this library could handle HTTP and Websockets. Thanks.

EDIT: Thought I should mention I'm using HttpServer and AddWebSocketService

Research direction

Start with the HttpServer and AddWebSocketService paths mentioned in the report, then reproduce the second-message failure in Chrome while comparing the behavior with Internet Explorer. Trace the WebSocket frame handling and determine why Chrome receives an invalid frame header; done means repeated messages keep the connection open without breaking existing HTTP and WebSocket behavior.
