-# Connection Cleanup Code Patterns
-
-## Pattern 1: Safe Connection Cleanup
-
-```typescript
-public initiateCleanupOnce(record: IConnectionRecord, reason: string = 'normal'): void {
-  // Prevent duplicate cleanup
-  if (record.incomingTerminationReason === null || 
-      record.incomingTerminationReason === undefined) {
-    record.incomingTerminationReason = reason;
-    this.incrementTerminationStat('incoming', reason);
-  }
-  
-  this.cleanupConnection(record, reason);
-}
-
-public cleanupConnection(record: IConnectionRecord, reason: string = 'normal'): void {
-  if (!record.connectionClosed) {
-    record.connectionClosed = true;
-    
-    // Remove from tracking immediately
-    this.connectionRecords.delete(record.id);
-    this.securityManager.removeConnectionByIP(record.remoteIP, record.id);
-    
-    // Clear timers
-    if (record.cleanupTimer) {
-      clearTimeout(record.cleanupTimer);
-      record.cleanupTimer = undefined;
-    }
-    
-    // Clean up sockets
-    this.cleanupSocket(record, 'incoming', record.incoming);
-    if (record.outgoing) {
-      this.cleanupSocket(record, 'outgoing', record.outgoing);
-    }
-    
-    // Clear memory
-    record.pendingData = [];
-    record.pendingDataSize = 0;
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## Pattern 2: Socket Cleanup with Retry
-
-```typescript
-private cleanupSocket(
-  record: IConnectionRecord, 
-  side: 'incoming' | 'outgoing', 
-  socket: plugins.net.Socket
-): void {
-  try {
-    if (!socket.destroyed) {
-      // Graceful shutdown first
-      socket.end();
-      
-      // Force destroy after timeout
-      const socketTimeout = setTimeout(() => {
-        try {
-          if (!socket.destroyed) {
-            socket.destroy();
-          }
-        } catch (err) {
-          console.log(`[${record.id}] Error destroying ${side} socket: ${err}`);
-        }
-      }, 1000);
-      
-      // Don't block process exit
-      if (socketTimeout.unref) {
-        socketTimeout.unref();
-      }
-    }
-  } catch (err) {
-    console.log(`[${record.id}] Error closing ${side} socket: ${err}`);
-    // Fallback to destroy
-    try {
-      if (!socket.destroyed) {
-        socket.destroy();
-      }
-    } catch (destroyErr) {
-      console.log(`[${record.id}] Error destroying ${side} socket: ${destroyErr}`);
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## Pattern 3: NetworkProxy Bridge Cleanup
-
-```typescript
-public async forwardToNetworkProxy(
-  connectionId: string,
-  socket: plugins.net.Socket,
-  record: IConnectionRecord,
-  initialChunk: Buffer,
-  networkProxyPort: number,
-  cleanupCallback: (reason: string) => void
-): Promise<void> {
-  const proxySocket = new plugins.net.Socket();
-  
-  // Connect to NetworkProxy
-  await new Promise<void>((resolve, reject) => {
-    proxySocket.connect(networkProxyPort, 'localhost', () => {
-      resolve();
-    });
-    proxySocket.on('error', reject);
-  });
-  
-  // Send initial data
-  if (initialChunk) {
-    proxySocket.write(initialChunk);
-  }
-  
-  // Setup bidirectional piping
-  socket.pipe(proxySocket);
-  proxySocket.pipe(socket);
-  
-  // Comprehensive cleanup handler
-  const cleanup = (reason: string) => {
-    // Unpipe to prevent data loss
-    socket.unpipe(proxySocket);
-    proxySocket.unpipe(socket);
-    
-    // Destroy proxy socket
-    proxySocket.destroy();
-    
-    // Notify SmartProxy
-    cleanupCallback(reason);
-  };
-  
-  // Setup all cleanup triggers
-  socket.on('end', () => cleanup('socket_end'));
-  socket.on('error', () => cleanup('socket_error'));
-  proxySocket.on('end', () => cleanup('proxy_end'));  
-  proxySocket.on('error', () => cleanup('proxy_error'));
-}
-```
-
-## Pattern 4: Error Handler with Cleanup
-
-```typescript
-public handleError(side: 'incoming' | 'outgoing', record: IConnectionRecord) {
-  return (err: Error) => {
-    const code = (err as any).code;
-    let reason = 'error';
-    
-    // Map error codes to reasons
-    switch (code) {
-      case 'ECONNRESET':
-        reason = 'econnreset';
-        break;
-      case 'ETIMEDOUT':
-        reason = 'etimedout';
-        break;
-      case 'ECONNREFUSED':
-        reason = 'connection_refused';
-        break;
-      case 'EHOSTUNREACH':
-        reason = 'host_unreachable';
-        break;
-    }
-    
-    // Log with context
-    const duration = Date.now() - record.incomingStartTime;
-    console.log(
-      `[${record.id}] ${code} on ${side} side from ${record.remoteIP}. ` +
-      `Duration: ${plugins.prettyMs(duration)}`
-    );
-    
-    // Track termination reason
-    if (side === 'incoming' && record.incomingTerminationReason === null) {
-      record.incomingTerminationReason = reason;
-      this.incrementTerminationStat('incoming', reason);
-    }
-    
-    // Initiate cleanup
-    this.initiateCleanupOnce(record, reason);
-  };
-}
-```
-
-## Pattern 5: Inactivity Check with Cleanup
-
-```typescript
-public performInactivityCheck(): void {
-  const now = Date.now();
-  const connectionIds = [...this.connectionRecords.keys()];
-  
-  for (const id of connectionIds) {
-    const record = this.connectionRecords.get(id);
-    if (!record) continue;
-    
-    // Skip if disabled or immortal
-    if (this.settings.disableInactivityCheck ||
-        (record.hasKeepAlive && this.settings.keepAliveTreatment === 'immortal')) {
-      continue;
-    }
-    
-    const inactivityTime = now - record.lastActivity;
-    let effectiveTimeout = this.settings.inactivityTimeout!;
-    
-    // Extended timeout for keep-alive
-    if (record.hasKeepAlive && this.settings.keepAliveTreatment === 'extended') {
-      effectiveTimeout *= (this.settings.keepAliveInactivityMultiplier || 6);
-    }
-    
-    if (inactivityTime > effectiveTimeout && !record.connectionClosed) {
-      // Warn before closing keep-alive connections
-      if (record.hasKeepAlive && !record.inactivityWarningIssued) {
-        console.log(`[${id}] Warning: Keep-alive connection inactive`);
-        record.inactivityWarningIssued = true;
-        // Grace period
-        record.lastActivity = now - (effectiveTimeout - 600000);
-      } else {
-        // Close the connection
-        console.log(`[${id}] Closing due to inactivity`);
-        this.cleanupConnection(record, 'inactivity');
-      }
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## Pattern 6: Complete Shutdown
-
-```typescript
-public clearConnections(): void {
-  const connectionIds = [...this.connectionRecords.keys()];
-  
-  // Phase 1: Graceful end
-  for (const id of connectionIds) {
-    const record = this.connectionRecords.get(id);
-    if (record) {
-      try {
-        // Clear timers
-        if (record.cleanupTimer) {
-          clearTimeout(record.cleanupTimer);
-          record.cleanupTimer = undefined;
-        }
-        
-        // Graceful socket end
-        if (record.incoming && !record.incoming.destroyed) {
-          record.incoming.end();
-        }
-        if (record.outgoing && !record.outgoing.destroyed) {
-          record.outgoing.end();
-        }
-      } catch (err) {
-        console.log(`Error during graceful end: ${err}`);
-      }
-    }
-  }
-  
-  // Phase 2: Force destroy after delay
-  setTimeout(() => {
-    for (const id of connectionIds) {
-      const record = this.connectionRecords.get(id);
-      if (record) {
-        try {
-          // Remove all listeners
-          if (record.incoming) {
-            record.incoming.removeAllListeners();
-            if (!record.incoming.destroyed) {
-              record.incoming.destroy();
-            }
-          }
-          if (record.outgoing) {
-            record.outgoing.removeAllListeners();
-            if (!record.outgoing.destroyed) {
-              record.outgoing.destroy();
-            }
-          }
-        } catch (err) {
-          console.log(`Error during forced destruction: ${err}`);
-        }
-      }
-    }
-    
-    // Clear all tracking
-    this.connectionRecords.clear();
-    this.terminationStats = { incoming: {}, outgoing: {} };
-  }, 100);
-}
-```
-
-## Pattern 7: Safe Event Handler Removal
-
-```typescript
-// Store handlers for later removal
-record.renegotiationHandler = this.tlsManager.createRenegotiationHandler(
-  connectionId,
-  serverName,
-  connInfo,
-  (connectionId, reason) => this.connectionManager.initiateCleanupOnce(record, reason)
-);
-
-// Add the handler
-socket.on('data', record.renegotiationHandler);
-
-// Remove during cleanup
-if (record.incoming) {
-  try {
-    record.incoming.removeAllListeners('data');
-    record.renegotiationHandler = undefined;
-  } catch (err) {
-    console.log(`[${record.id}] Error removing data handlers: ${err}`);
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## Pattern 8: Connection State Tracking
-
-```typescript
-interface IConnectionRecord {
-  id: string;
-  connectionClosed: boolean;
-  incomingTerminationReason: string | null;
-  outgoingTerminationReason: string | null;
-  cleanupTimer?: NodeJS.Timeout;
-  renegotiationHandler?: Function;
-  // ... other fields
-}
-
-// Check state before operations
-if (!record.connectionClosed) {
-  // Safe to perform operations
-}
-
-// Track cleanup state
-record.connectionClosed = true;
-```
-
-## Key Principles
-
-1. **Idempotency**: Cleanup operations should be safe to call multiple times
-2. **State Tracking**: Always track connection and cleanup state
-3. **Error Resilience**: Handle errors during cleanup gracefully
-4. **Resource Release**: Clear all references (timers, handlers, buffers)
-5. **Graceful First**: Try graceful shutdown before forced destroy
-6. **Comprehensive Coverage**: Handle all possible termination scenarios
-7. **Logging**: Track termination reasons for debugging
-8. **Memory Safety**: Clear data structures to prevent leaks

-# Connection Termination Issues and Solutions in SmartProxy/NetworkProxy
-
-## Common Connection Termination Scenarios
-
-### 1. Normal Connection Closure
-
-**Flow**:
-- Client or server initiates graceful close
-- 'close' event triggers cleanup
-- Connection removed from tracking
-- Resources freed
-
-**Code Path**:
-```typescript
-// In ConnectionManager
-handleClose(side: 'incoming' | 'outgoing', record: IConnectionRecord) {
-  record.incomingTerminationReason = 'normal';
-  this.initiateCleanupOnce(record, 'closed_' + side);
-}
-```
-
-### 2. Error-Based Termination
-
-**Common Errors**:
-- ECONNRESET: Connection reset by peer
-- ETIMEDOUT: Connection timed out
-- ECONNREFUSED: Connection refused
-- EHOSTUNREACH: Host unreachable
-
-**Handling**:
-```typescript
-handleError(side: 'incoming' | 'outgoing', record: IConnectionRecord) {
-  return (err: Error) => {
-    const code = (err as any).code;
-    let reason = 'error';
-    
-    if (code === 'ECONNRESET') {
-      reason = 'econnreset';
-    } else if (code === 'ETIMEDOUT') {
-      reason = 'etimedout';
-    }
-    
-    this.initiateCleanupOnce(record, reason);
-  };
-}
-```
-
-### 3. Inactivity Timeout
-
-**Detection**:
-```typescript
-performInactivityCheck(): void {
-  const now = Date.now();
-  for (const record of this.connectionRecords.values()) {
-    const inactivityTime = now - record.lastActivity;
-    if (inactivityTime > effectiveTimeout) {
-      this.cleanupConnection(record, 'inactivity');
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-**Special Cases**:
-- Keep-alive connections get extended timeouts
-- "Immortal" connections bypass inactivity checks
-- Warning issued before closure for keep-alive connections
-
-### 4. NFTables-Handled Connections
-
-**Special Handling**:
-```typescript
-if (route.action.forwardingEngine === 'nftables') {
-  socket.end();
-  record.nftablesHandled = true;
-  this.connectionManager.initiateCleanupOnce(record, 'nftables_handled');
-  return;
-}
-```
-
-These connections are:
-- Handled at kernel level
-- Closed immediately at application level
-- Tracked for metrics only
-
-### 5. NetworkProxy Bridge Termination
-
-**Bridge Cleanup**:
-```typescript
-const cleanup = (reason: string) => {
-  socket.unpipe(proxySocket);
-  proxySocket.unpipe(socket);
-  proxySocket.destroy();
-  cleanupCallback(reason);
-};
-
-socket.on('end', () => cleanup('socket_end'));
-socket.on('error', () => cleanup('socket_error'));
-proxySocket.on('end', () => cleanup('proxy_end'));
-proxySocket.on('error', () => cleanup('proxy_error'));
-```
-
-## Preventing Connection Leaks
-
-### 1. Always Remove Event Listeners
-
-```typescript
-cleanupConnection(record: IConnectionRecord, reason: string): void {
-  if (record.incoming) {
-    record.incoming.removeAllListeners('data');
-    record.renegotiationHandler = undefined;
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### 2. Clear Timers
-
-```typescript
-if (record.cleanupTimer) {
-  clearTimeout(record.cleanupTimer);
-  record.cleanupTimer = undefined;
-}
-```
-
-### 3. Proper Socket Cleanup
-
-```typescript
-private cleanupSocket(record: IConnectionRecord, side: string, socket: net.Socket): void {
-  try {
-    if (!socket.destroyed) {
-      socket.end(); // Graceful
-      setTimeout(() => {
-        if (!socket.destroyed) {
-          socket.destroy(); // Forced
-        }
-      }, 1000);
-    }
-  } catch (err) {
-    console.log(`Error closing ${side} socket: ${err}`);
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### 4. Connection Record Cleanup
-
-```typescript
-// Clear pending data to prevent memory leaks
-record.pendingData = [];
-record.pendingDataSize = 0;
-
-// Remove from tracking map
-this.connectionRecords.delete(record.id);
-```
-
-## Monitoring and Debugging
-
-### 1. Termination Statistics
-
-```typescript
-private terminationStats: {
-  incoming: Record<string, number>;
-  outgoing: Record<string, number>;
-} = { incoming: {}, outgoing: {} };
-
-incrementTerminationStat(side: 'incoming' | 'outgoing', reason: string): void {
-  this.terminationStats[side][reason] = (this.terminationStats[side][reason] || 0) + 1;
-}
-```
-
-### 2. Connection Logging
-
-**Detailed Logging**:
-```typescript
-console.log(
-  `[${record.id}] Connection from ${record.remoteIP} terminated (${reason}).` +
-  ` Duration: ${prettyMs(duration)}, Bytes IN: ${bytesReceived}, OUT: ${bytesSent}`
-);
-```
-
-### 3. Active Connection Tracking
-
-```typescript
-getConnectionCount(): number {
-  return this.connectionRecords.size;
-}
-
-// In NetworkProxy
-metrics = {
-  activeConnections: this.connectedClients,
-  portProxyConnections: this.portProxyConnections,
-  tlsTerminatedConnections: this.tlsTerminatedConnections
-};
-```
-
-## Best Practices for Connection Termination
-
-1. **Always Use initiateCleanupOnce()**:
-   - Prevents duplicate cleanup operations
-   - Ensures proper termination reason tracking
-
-2. **Handle All Socket Events**:
-   - 'error', 'close', 'end' events
-   - Both incoming and outgoing sockets
-
-3. **Implement Proper Timeouts**:
-   - Initial data timeout
-   - Inactivity timeout  
-   - Maximum connection lifetime
-
-4. **Track Resources**:
-   - Connection records
-   - Socket maps
-   - Timer references
-
-5. **Log Termination Reasons**:
-   - Helps debug connection issues
-   - Provides metrics for monitoring
-
-6. **Graceful Shutdown**:
-   - Try socket.end() before socket.destroy()
-   - Allow time for graceful closure
-
-7. **Memory Management**:
-   - Clear pending data buffers
-   - Remove event listeners
-   - Delete connection records
-
-## Common Issues and Solutions
-
-### Issue: Memory Leaks from Event Listeners
-**Solution**: Always call removeAllListeners() during cleanup
-
-### Issue: Orphaned Connections
-**Solution**: Implement multiple cleanup triggers (timeout, error, close)
-
-### Issue: Duplicate Cleanup Operations
-**Solution**: Use connectionClosed flag and initiateCleanupOnce()
-
-### Issue: Hanging Connections
-**Solution**: Implement inactivity checks and maximum lifetime limits
-
-### Issue: Resource Exhaustion
-**Solution**: Track connection counts and implement limits
-
-### Issue: Lost Data During Cleanup
-**Solution**: Use proper unpipe operations and graceful shutdown
-
-### Issue: Debugging Connection Issues
-**Solution**: Track termination reasons and maintain detailed logs

-# NetworkProxy Connection Termination and SmartProxy Connection Handling
-
-## Overview
-
-The connection management between NetworkProxy and SmartProxy involves complex coordination to handle TLS termination, connection forwarding, and proper cleanup. This document outlines how these systems work together.
-
-## SmartProxy Connection Management
-
-### Connection Tracking (ConnectionManager)
-
-1. **Connection Lifecycle**:
-   - New connections are registered in `ConnectionManager.createConnection()`
-   - Each connection gets a unique ID and tracking record
-   - Connection records track both incoming (client) and outgoing (target) sockets
-   - Connections are removed from tracking upon cleanup
-
-2. **Connection Cleanup Flow**:
-   ```
-   initiateCleanupOnce() -> cleanupConnection() -> cleanupSocket()
-   ```
-   - `initiateCleanupOnce()`: Prevents duplicate cleanup operations
-   - `cleanupConnection()`: Main cleanup logic, removes connections from tracking
-   - `cleanupSocket()`: Handles socket termination (graceful end, then forced destroy)
-
-3. **Cleanup Triggers**:
-   - Socket errors (ECONNRESET, ETIMEDOUT, etc.)
-   - Socket close events
-   - Inactivity timeouts
-   - Connection lifetime limits
-   - Manual cleanup (e.g., NFTables-handled connections)
-
-## NetworkProxy Integration
-
-### NetworkProxyBridge
-
-The `NetworkProxyBridge` class manages the connection between SmartProxy and NetworkProxy:
-
-1. **Connection Forwarding**:
-   ```typescript
-   forwardToNetworkProxy(
-     connectionId: string,
-     socket: net.Socket,
-     record: IConnectionRecord,
-     initialChunk: Buffer,
-     networkProxyPort: number,
-     cleanupCallback: (reason: string) => void
-   )
-   ```
-   - Creates a new socket connection to NetworkProxy
-   - Pipes data between client and NetworkProxy sockets
-   - Sets up cleanup handlers for both sockets
-
-2. **Cleanup Coordination**:
-   - When either socket ends or errors, both are cleaned up
-   - Cleanup callback notifies SmartProxy's ConnectionManager
-   - Proper unpipe operations prevent memory leaks
-
-## NetworkProxy Connection Tracking
-
-### Connection Tracking in NetworkProxy
-
-1. **Raw TCP Connection Tracking**:
-   ```typescript
-   setupConnectionTracking(): void {
-     this.httpsServer.on('connection', (connection: net.Socket) => {
-       // Track connections in socketMap
-       this.socketMap.add(connection);
-       
-       // Setup cleanup handlers
-       connection.on('close', cleanupConnection);
-       connection.on('error', cleanupConnection);
-       connection.on('end', cleanupConnection);
-     });
-   }
-   ```
-
-2. **SmartProxy Connection Detection**:
-   - Connections from localhost (127.0.0.1) are identified as SmartProxy connections
-   - Special counter tracks `portProxyConnections`
-   - Connection counts are updated when connections close
-
-3. **Metrics and Monitoring**:
-   - Active connections tracked in `connectedClients`
-   - TLS handshake completions tracked in `tlsTerminatedConnections`
-   - Connection pool status monitored periodically
-
-## Connection Termination Flow
-
-### Typical TLS Termination Flow:
-
-1. Client connects to SmartProxy
-2. SmartProxy creates connection record and tracks socket
-3. SmartProxy determines route requires TLS termination
-4. NetworkProxyBridge forwards connection to NetworkProxy
-5. NetworkProxy performs TLS termination
-6. Data flows through piped sockets
-7. When connection ends:
-   - NetworkProxy cleans up its socket tracking
-   - NetworkProxyBridge handles cleanup coordination
-   - SmartProxy's ConnectionManager removes connection record
-   - All resources are properly released
-
-### Cleanup Coordination Points:
-
-1. **SmartProxy Cleanup**:
-   - ConnectionManager tracks all cleanup reasons
-   - Socket handlers removed to prevent memory leaks
-   - Timeout timers cleared
-   - Connection records removed from maps
-   - Security manager notified of connection removal
-
-2. **NetworkProxy Cleanup**:
-   - Sockets removed from tracking map
-   - Connection counters updated
-   - Metrics updated for monitoring
-   - Connection pool resources freed
-
-3. **Bridge Cleanup**:
-   - Unpipe operations prevent data loss
-   - Both sockets properly destroyed
-   - Cleanup callback ensures SmartProxy is notified
-
-## Important Considerations
-
-1. **Memory Management**:
-   - All event listeners must be removed during cleanup
-   - Proper unpipe operations prevent memory leaks
-   - Connection records cleared from all tracking maps
-
-2. **Error Handling**:
-   - Multiple cleanup mechanisms prevent orphaned connections
-   - Graceful shutdown attempted before forced destruction
-   - Timeout mechanisms ensure cleanup even in edge cases
-
-3. **State Consistency**:
-   - Connection closed flags prevent duplicate cleanup
-   - Termination reasons tracked for debugging
-   - Activity timestamps updated for accurate timeout handling
-
-4. **Performance**:
-   - Connection pools minimize TCP handshake overhead
-   - Efficient socket tracking using Maps
-   - Periodic cleanup prevents resource accumulation
-
-## Best Practices
-
-1. Always use `initiateCleanupOnce()` to prevent duplicate cleanup operations
-2. Track termination reasons for debugging and monitoring
-3. Ensure all event listeners are removed during cleanup
-4. Use proper unpipe operations when breaking socket connections
-5. Monitor connection counts and cleanup statistics
-6. Implement proper timeout handling for all connection types
-7. Keep socket tracking maps synchronized with actual socket state

 # Changelog
 
+## 2025-05-19 - 19.3.9 - fix(route-connection-handler)
+Forward non-TLS connections on HttpProxy ports to fix ACME HTTP-01 challenge handling
+

 ### Common Issues
 
-1. **Certificate not provisioning**: Ensure port 80 is accessible for ACME challenges
-2. **ACME rate limits**: Use staging environment for testing
+1. **Certificate not provisioning**: Ensure the ACME challenge port (80 or configured port) is accessible
+2. **ACME rate limits**: Use staging environment for testing (`useProduction: false`)
 3. **Permission errors**: Ensure the certificate directory is writable
+4. **Invalid email domain**: ACME servers may reject certain email domains (e.g., example.com). Use a real email domain
+5. **Port binding errors**: Use higher ports (e.g., 8080) if running without root privileges
+
+### Using Non-Privileged Ports
+
+For development or non-root environments:
+
+```typescript
+const proxy = new SmartProxy({
+  acme: {

+# HTTP-01 ACME Challenge Fix (v19.3.8)
+
+## Problem Description
+
+In SmartProxy v19.3.7 and earlier, ACME HTTP-01 challenges would fail when port 80 was configured to use HttpProxy via the `useHttpProxy` configuration option. The issue was that non-TLS connections on ports listed in `useHttpProxy` were not being forwarded to HttpProxy, instead being handled as direct connections.
+
+## Root Cause
+
+The bug was located in the `RouteConnectionHandler.handleForwardAction` method in `ts/proxies/smart-proxy/route-connection-handler.ts`. The method only forwarded connections to HttpProxy if they had TLS settings with mode 'terminate' or 'terminate-and-reencrypt'. Non-TLS connections (like HTTP on port 80) were always handled as direct connections, regardless of the `useHttpProxy` configuration.
+
+## Solution
+
+The fix adds a check for non-TLS connections on ports listed in the `useHttpProxy` array:
+
+```typescript
+// No TLS settings - check if this port should use HttpProxy
+const isHttpProxyPort = this.settings.useHttpProxy?.includes(record.localPort);
+
+if (isHttpProxyPort && this.httpProxyBridge.getHttpProxy()) {
+  // Forward non-TLS connections to HttpProxy if configured
+  if (this.settings.enableDetailedLogging) {
+    console.log(
+      `[${connectionId}] Using HttpProxy for non-TLS connection on port ${record.localPort}`
+    );
+  }
+  
+  this.httpProxyBridge.forwardToHttpProxy(
+    connectionId,
+    socket,
+    record,
+    initialChunk,
+    this.settings.httpProxyPort || 8443,
+    (reason) => this.connectionManager.initiateCleanupOnce(record, reason)
+  );
+  return;
+}
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+To enable ACME HTTP-01 challenges on port 80 with HttpProxy:
+
+```typescript
+const proxy = new SmartProxy({
+  useHttpProxy: [80], // Must include port 80 for HTTP-01 challenges
+  httpProxyPort: 8443, // Default HttpProxy port
+  acme: {
+    email: 'ssl@example.com',
+    port: 80, // ACME challenge port
+    useProduction: false
+  },
+  routes: [
+    {
+      name: 'https-route',
+      match: {
+        ports: 443,
+        domains: 'example.com'
+      },
+      action: {
+        type: 'forward',
+        target: { host: 'localhost', port: 8080 },
+        tls: {
+          mode: 'terminate',
+          certificate: 'auto',
+          acme: {
+            email: 'ssl@example.com',
+            useProduction: false
+          }
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  ]
+});
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+The fix is verified by unit tests in `test/test.http-fix-unit.ts`:
+
+1. **Test 1**: Verifies that non-TLS connections on ports in `useHttpProxy` are forwarded to HttpProxy
+2. **Test 2**: Confirms that ports not in `useHttpProxy` still use direct connections
+3. **Test 3**: Validates that ACME HTTP-01 challenges on port 80 work correctly with HttpProxy
+
+## Impact
+
+This fix enables proper ACME HTTP-01 challenge handling when:
+1. Port 80 is configured in the `useHttpProxy` array
+2. An ACME challenge route is configured to use HTTP-01 validation
+3. Certificate provisioning with `certificate: 'auto'` is used
+
+Without this fix, HTTP-01 challenges would fail because the challenge requests would not reach the ACME handler in HttpProxy.
+
+## Migration Guide
+
+If you were experiencing ACME HTTP-01 challenge failures:
+
+1. Update to SmartProxy v19.3.8 or later
+2. Ensure port 80 is included in your `useHttpProxy` configuration
+3. Verify your ACME configuration includes the correct email and port settings
+4. Test certificate renewal with staging ACME first (`useProduction: false`)
+
+## Related Issues
+
+- ACME HTTP-01 challenges timing out on port 80
+- HTTP requests not being parsed on configured HttpProxy ports

-# SmartProxy ACME Simplification Implementation Summary
-
-## Overview
-
-We successfully implemented comprehensive support for both global and route-level ACME configuration in SmartProxy v19.0.0, addressing the certificate acquisition issues and improving the developer experience.
-
-## What Was Implemented
-
-### 1. Enhanced Configuration Support
-- Added global ACME configuration at the SmartProxy level
-- Maintained support for route-level ACME configuration
-- Implemented configuration hierarchy where global settings serve as defaults
-- Route-level settings override global defaults when specified
-
-### 2. Updated Core Components
-
-#### SmartProxy Class (`smart-proxy.ts`)
-- Enhanced ACME configuration normalization in constructor
-- Added support for both `email` and `accountEmail` fields
-- Updated `initializeCertificateManager` to prioritize configurations correctly
-- Added `validateAcmeConfiguration` method for comprehensive validation
-
-#### SmartCertManager Class (`certificate-manager.ts`)
-- Added `globalAcmeDefaults` property to store top-level configuration
-- Implemented `setGlobalAcmeDefaults` method
-- Updated `provisionAcmeCertificate` to use global defaults
-- Enhanced error messages to guide users to correct configuration
-
-#### ISmartProxyOptions Interface (`interfaces.ts`)
-- Added comprehensive documentation for global ACME configuration
-- Enhanced IAcmeOptions interface with better field descriptions
-- Added example usage in JSDoc comments
-
-### 3. Configuration Validation
-- Checks for missing ACME email configuration
-- Validates port 80 availability for HTTP-01 challenges
-- Warns about wildcard domains with auto certificates
-- Detects environment mismatches between global and route configs
-
-### 4. Test Coverage
-Created comprehensive test suite (`test.acme-configuration.node.ts`):
-- Top-level ACME configuration
-- Route-level ACME configuration
-- Mixed configuration with overrides
-- Error handling for missing email
-- Support for accountEmail alias
-
-### 5. Documentation Updates
-
-#### Main README (`readme.md`)
-- Added global ACME configuration example
-- Updated code examples to show both configuration styles
-- Added dedicated ACME configuration section
-
-#### Certificate Management Guide (`certificate-management.md`)
-- Updated for v19.0.0 changes
-- Added configuration hierarchy explanation
-- Included troubleshooting section
-- Added migration guide from v18
-
-#### Readme Hints (`readme.hints.md`)
-- Added breaking change warning for ACME configuration
-- Included correct configuration example
-- Added migration considerations
-
-## Key Benefits
-
-1. **Reduced Configuration Duplication**: Global ACME settings eliminate need to repeat configuration
-2. **Better Developer Experience**: Clear error messages guide users to correct configuration
-3. **Backward Compatibility**: Route-level configuration still works as before
-4. **Flexible Configuration**: Can mix global defaults with route-specific overrides
-5. **Improved Validation**: Warns about common configuration issues
-
-## Testing Results
-
-All tests pass successfully:
-- Global ACME configuration works correctly
-- Route-level configuration continues to function
-- Configuration hierarchy behaves as expected
-- Error messages provide clear guidance
-
-## Migration Path
-
-For users upgrading from v18:
-1. Existing route-level ACME configuration continues to work
-2. Can optionally move common settings to global level
-3. Route-specific overrides remain available
-4. No breaking changes for existing configurations
-
-## Conclusion
-
-The implementation successfully addresses the original issue where SmartAcme was not initialized due to missing configuration. Users now have flexible options for configuring ACME, with clear error messages and comprehensive documentation to guide them.

+## HTTP-01 ACME Challenge Fix (v19.3.8)
+
+### Issue
+Non-TLS connections on ports configured in `useHttpProxy` were not being forwarded to HttpProxy. This caused ACME HTTP-01 challenges to fail when the ACME port (usually 80) was included in `useHttpProxy`.
+
+### Root Cause
+In the `RouteConnectionHandler.handleForwardAction` method, only connections with TLS settings (mode: 'terminate' or 'terminate-and-reencrypt') were being forwarded to HttpProxy. Non-TLS connections were always handled as direct connections, even when the port was configured for HttpProxy.
+
+### Solution
+Added a check for non-TLS connections on ports listed in `useHttpProxy`:
+```typescript
+// No TLS settings - check if this port should use HttpProxy
+const isHttpProxyPort = this.settings.useHttpProxy?.includes(record.localPort);
+
+if (isHttpProxyPort && this.httpProxyBridge.getHttpProxy()) {
+  // Forward non-TLS connections to HttpProxy if configured
+  this.httpProxyBridge.forwardToHttpProxy(/*...*/);
+  return;
+}
+```
+
+### Test Coverage
+- `test/test.http-fix-unit.ts` - Unit tests verifying the fix
+- Tests confirm that non-TLS connections on HttpProxy ports are properly forwarded
+- Tests verify that non-HttpProxy ports still use direct connections
+
+### Configuration Example
+```typescript
+const proxy = new SmartProxy({
+  useHttpProxy: [80], // Enable HttpProxy for port 80
+  httpProxyPort: 8443,
+  acme: {
+    email: 'ssl@example.com',
+    port: 80
+  },
+  routes: [
+    // Your routes here

-
-## Critical Bug Fix: Port 80 EADDRINUSE with ACME Challenge Routes
-
-### Problem Statement
-SmartProxy encounters an "EADDRINUSE" error on port 80 when provisioning multiple ACME certificates. The issue occurs because the certificate manager adds and removes the challenge route for each certificate individually, causing race conditions when multiple certificates are provisioned concurrently.
-
-### Root Cause
-The `SmartCertManager` class adds the ACME challenge route (port 80) before provisioning each certificate and removes it afterward. When multiple certificates are provisioned:
-1. Each provisioning cycle adds its own challenge route
-2. This triggers `updateRoutes()` which calls `PortManager.updatePorts()`
-3. Port 80 is repeatedly added/removed, causing binding conflicts
-
-### Implementation Plan
-
-#### Phase 1: Refactor Challenge Route Lifecycle
-1. **Modify challenge route handling** in `SmartCertManager`
-   - [x] Add challenge route once during initialization if ACME is configured
-   - [x] Keep challenge route active throughout entire certificate provisioning
-   - [x] Remove challenge route only after all certificates are provisioned
-   - [x] Add concurrency control to prevent multiple simultaneous route updates
-
-#### Phase 2: Update Certificate Provisioning Flow
-2. **Refactor certificate provisioning methods**
-   - [x] Separate challenge route management from individual certificate provisioning
-   - [x] Update `provisionAcmeCertificate()` to not add/remove challenge routes
-   - [x] Modify `provisionAllCertificates()` to handle challenge route lifecycle
-   - [x] Add error handling for challenge route initialization failures
-
-#### Phase 3: Implement Concurrency Controls
-3. **Add synchronization mechanisms**
-   - [x] Implement mutex/lock for challenge route operations
-   - [x] Ensure certificate provisioning is properly serialized
-   - [x] Add safeguards against duplicate challenge routes
-   - [x] Handle edge cases (shutdown during provisioning, renewal conflicts)
-
-#### Phase 4: Enhance Error Handling
-4. **Improve error handling and recovery**
-   - [x] Add specific error types for port conflicts
-   - [x] Implement retry logic for transient port binding issues
-   - [x] Add detailed logging for challenge route lifecycle
-   - [x] Ensure proper cleanup on errors
-
-#### Phase 5: Create Comprehensive Tests
-5. **Write tests for challenge route management**
-   - [x] Test concurrent certificate provisioning
-   - [x] Test challenge route persistence during provisioning
-   - [x] Test error scenarios (port already in use)
-   - [x] Test cleanup after provisioning
-   - [x] Test renewal scenarios with existing challenge routes
-
-#### Phase 6: Update Documentation
-6. **Document the new behavior**
-   - [x] Update certificate management documentation
-   - [x] Add troubleshooting guide for port conflicts
-   - [x] Document the challenge route lifecycle
-   - [x] Include examples of proper ACME configuration
-
-### Technical Details
-
-#### Specific Code Changes
-
-1. In `SmartCertManager.initialize()`:
-   ```typescript
-   // Add challenge route once at initialization
-   if (hasAcmeRoutes && this.acmeOptions?.email) {
-     await this.addChallengeRoute();
-   }
-   ```
-
-2. Modify `provisionAcmeCertificate()`:
-   ```typescript
-   // Remove these lines:
-   // await this.addChallengeRoute();
-   // await this.removeChallengeRoute();
-   ```
-
-3. Update `stop()` method:
-   ```typescript
-   // Always remove challenge route on shutdown
-   if (this.challengeRoute) {
-     await this.removeChallengeRoute();
-   }
-   ```
-
-4. Add concurrency control:
-   ```typescript
-   private challengeRouteLock = new AsyncLock();
-   
-   private async manageChallengeRoute(operation: 'add' | 'remove'): Promise<void> {
-     await this.challengeRouteLock.acquire('challenge-route', async () => {
-       if (operation === 'add') {
-         await this.addChallengeRoute();
-       } else {
-         await this.removeChallengeRoute();
-       }
-     });
-   }
-   ```
-
-### Success Criteria
-- [x] No EADDRINUSE errors when provisioning multiple certificates
-- [x] Challenge route remains active during entire provisioning cycle
-- [x] Port 80 is only bound once per SmartProxy instance
-- [x] Proper cleanup on shutdown or error
-- [x] All tests pass
-- [x] Documentation clearly explains the behavior
-
-### Implementation Summary
-
-The port 80 EADDRINUSE issue has been successfully fixed through the following changes:
-
-1. **Challenge Route Lifecycle**: Modified to add challenge route once during initialization and keep it active throughout certificate provisioning
-2. **Concurrency Control**: Added flags to prevent concurrent provisioning and duplicate challenge route operations
-3. **Error Handling**: Enhanced error messages for port conflicts and proper cleanup on errors
-4. **Tests**: Created comprehensive test suite for challenge route lifecycle scenarios
-5. **Documentation**: Updated certificate management guide with troubleshooting section for port conflicts
-
-The fix ensures that port 80 is only bound once, preventing EADDRINUSE errors during concurrent certificate provisioning operations.
-
-### Timeline
-- Phase 1: 2 hours (Challenge route lifecycle)
-- Phase 2: 1 hour (Provisioning flow)
-- Phase 3: 2 hours (Concurrency controls)
-- Phase 4: 1 hour (Error handling)
-- Phase 5: 2 hours (Testing)
-- Phase 6: 1 hour (Documentation)
-
-Total estimated time: 9 hours
-
-### Notes
-- This is a critical bug affecting ACME certificate provisioning
-- The fix requires careful handling of concurrent operations
-- Backward compatibility must be maintained
-- Consider impact on renewal operations and edge cases
-
-## NEW FINDINGS: Additional Port Management Issues
-
-### Problem Statement
-Further investigation has revealed additional issues beyond the initial port 80 EADDRINUSE error:
-
-1. **Race Condition in updateRoutes**: Certificate manager is recreated during route updates, potentially causing duplicate challenge routes
-2. **Lost State**: The `challengeRouteActive` flag is not persisted when certificate manager is recreated
-3. **No Global Synchronization**: Multiple concurrent route updates can create conflicting certificate managers
-4. **Incomplete Cleanup**: Challenge route removal doesn't verify actual port release
-
-### Implementation Plan for Additional Fixes
-
-#### Phase 1: Fix updateRoutes Race Condition
-1. **Preserve certificate manager state during route updates**
-   - [x] Track active challenge routes at SmartProxy level
-   - [x] Pass existing state to new certificate manager instances
-   - [x] Ensure challenge route is only added once across recreations
-   - [x] Add proper cleanup before recreation
-
-#### Phase 2: Implement Global Route Update Lock
-2. **Add synchronization for route updates**
-   - [x] Implement mutex/semaphore for `updateRoutes` method
-   - [x] Prevent concurrent certificate manager recreations
-   - [x] Ensure atomic route updates
-   - [x] Add timeout handling for locks
-
-#### Phase 3: Improve State Management
-3. **Persist critical state across certificate manager instances**
-   - [x] Create global state store for ACME operations
-   - [x] Track active challenge routes globally
-   - [x] Maintain port allocation state
-   - [x] Add state recovery mechanisms
-
-#### Phase 4: Enhance Cleanup Verification
-4. **Verify resource cleanup before recreation**
-   - [x] Wait for old certificate manager to fully stop
-   - [x] Verify challenge route removal from port manager
-   - [x] Add cleanup confirmation callbacks
-   - [x] Implement rollback on cleanup failure
-
-#### Phase 5: Add Comprehensive Testing
-5. **Test race conditions and edge cases**
-   - [x] Test rapid route updates with ACME
-   - [x] Test concurrent certificate manager operations
-   - [x] Test state persistence across recreations
-   - [x] Test cleanup verification logic
-
-### Technical Implementation
-
-1. **Global Challenge Route Tracker**:
-   ```typescript
-   class SmartProxy {
-     private globalChallengeRouteActive = false;
-     private routeUpdateLock = new Mutex();
-     
-     async updateRoutes(newRoutes: IRouteConfig[]): Promise<void> {
-       await this.routeUpdateLock.runExclusive(async () => {
-         // Update logic here
-       });
-     }
-   }
-   ```
-
-2. **State Preservation**:
-   ```typescript
-   if (this.certManager) {
-     const state = {
-       challengeRouteActive: this.globalChallengeRouteActive,
-       acmeOptions: this.certManager.getAcmeOptions(),
-       // ... other state
-     };
-     
-     await this.certManager.stop();
-     await this.verifyChallengeRouteRemoved();
-     
-     this.certManager = await this.createCertificateManager(
-       newRoutes,
-       './certs',
-       state
-     );
-   }
-   ```
-
-3. **Cleanup Verification**:
-   ```typescript
-   private async verifyChallengeRouteRemoved(): Promise<void> {
-     const maxRetries = 10;
-     for (let i = 0; i < maxRetries; i++) {
-       if (!this.portManager.isListening(80)) {
-         return;
-       }

-     }
-     throw new Error('Failed to verify challenge route removal');
-   }

-
-### Success Criteria
-- [ ] No race conditions during route updates
-- [ ] State properly preserved across certificate manager recreations
-- [ ] No duplicate challenge routes
-- [ ] Clean resource management
-- [ ] All edge cases handled gracefully
-
-### Timeline for Additional Fixes
-- Phase 1: 3 hours (Race condition fix)
-- Phase 2: 2 hours (Global synchronization)
-- Phase 3: 2 hours (State management)
-- Phase 4: 2 hours (Cleanup verification)
-- Phase 5: 3 hours (Testing)
-
-Total estimated time: 12 hours
-
-### Priority
-These additional fixes are HIGH PRIORITY as they address fundamental issues that could cause:
-- Port binding errors
-- Certificate provisioning failures
-- Resource leaks
-- Inconsistent proxy state
-
-The fixes should be implemented immediately after the initial port 80 EADDRINUSE fix is deployed.
-
-### Implementation Complete
-
-All additional port management issues have been successfully addressed:
-
-1. **Mutex Implementation**: Created a custom `Mutex` class for synchronizing route updates
-2. **Global State Tracking**: Implemented `AcmeStateManager` to track challenge routes globally
-3. **State Preservation**: Modified `SmartCertManager` to accept and preserve state across recreations
-4. **Cleanup Verification**: Added `verifyChallengeRouteRemoved` method to ensure proper cleanup
-5. **Comprehensive Testing**: Created test suites for race conditions and state management
-
-The implementation ensures:
-- No concurrent route updates can create conflicting states
-- Challenge route state is preserved across certificate manager recreations
-- Port 80 is properly managed without EADDRINUSE errors
-- All resources are cleaned up properly during shutdown
-
-All tests are ready to run and the implementation is complete.
