About the 1st test:

The logs when it establishes the VNC connection over WebSockets look like this:

So there was a connection before and it has re-established a new one.

Apparently our backend's VNC client closed the TCP connection to dewebsockify (Client closed connection) which then closed the WebSockets connection normally (WebSocket closed with status 1000):

Likely this is due to the detected stall. Then the backend tries to re-establish the WebSocket connection (Establishing VNC connection over WebSockets…) but it somehow doesn't work as the VNC client cannot connect to dewebsockify (Connection refused). There are no log messages from dewebsockify but also no errors about launching it.

About the 2nd test:

It generally re-establishes the WebSocket connection when re-connecting on a VNC stall:

The log message Rejecting new client; already one client connected indicates that the backend tries to create another VNC connection while one is still present (dewebsockify is still running and thinks our VNC client is connected to it). I suppose that's the problem. Now the question to answer is why it happened here and how it can be fixed.

but it somehow doesn't work as the VNC client cannot connect to dewebsockify

I suppose I know why that is. I'm working on a fix.

The cause is that dewebsockify is not launched a second time due to a logic error. The second test failure has probably the same cause and just looks different because the previous dewebsockify instance is actually still running.

So this PR should address both issues: https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst/pull/2136

I have only tested it via unit tests so it would be great if you could checkout my changes on your worker host and try them out.

Yes, it looks like it now survives multiple re-connects:
