Research direction

Start with source/usermonitor/datacollection/start.py and reproduce the logged CLOSE_EXP_SESSION messages using the shown Python command. Trace how the webapp and eye-tracker handle session closure after an unhandled exception, and consider the issue done when the close action is handled consistently on both sides.

Description

bug Medium Priority

following #2, on the webapp side, then I tried to close the session, and the close button is depressed with no action. On the eye-tracker side, I see the action not being handled, which is not surprising given the session is lost. Just thought I'd put it in for your information.
