Unfortunately this reconnect does not always work... :-( Maybe the reconnection work only when losing the connection but not in other kind of errors. I am using gnugk 2.2.2 in Solaris 9, linked against static mysql client libraries. In the compilation platform the reconnect field of the MYSQL structures are true (1). I guess it should be also true in the platform I have had problems, but I have not actually confirmed that. Anyway, once in a while, maybe once in one or two or three days there is error executing the query (sqlauth.cxx(236)) - first I get: Lost connection to MySQL server during query, and then (not sure if always, I just have one print-out in front of me): Can't connect to MySQL server on 'db.blahblahblah.com'. On the MySQL server log (warning level for the server must be incremented to see this, I guess): [warning]: Aborted connection N to db: 'XXXXXX' user: 'XXXXX' host: `N.N.N.N' (Got an error reading communication packets) or [warning]: Aborted connection N to db: 'XXXXXX' user: 'XXXXX' host: `N.N.N.N' (Got a timeout reading communication packets) Until reload issued (SIGHUP) the SQL connectivity is lost and gnugk is in useless state. I have tried to reproduce the problem by taking sql stuff from gnugk apart and running a simple test program but have failed to reproduce the problem (I cannot use the same database server). I guess it would not be so difficult to make the SQL connectivity much more robust for all kind of SQL drivers. One way to fix the problem would be as follows: On encountering an error executing the actual SQL driver specific ExecuteQuery() method, the concrete GkSQLConnection::ExecuteQuery() methods could recreate the connection and try once again. Based on my glance on the code, it seems having successfully called AcquireSQLConnection() the SQLConnPtr connptr should be in m_busyConnections (if the connection pool is larger than 1) or in m_idleConnections (if the size of the connection pool equals 1). It should be okay to replace the connection with a newly created one. I do not know if there is a way to find if a SQL connection works or not without making a query... if yes then we could test that before recreating the connection so that we would not unnecessary burden the SQL server in case of configuration errors producing faulty SQL queries. > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Costin Manda" <siderite@xxxxxxxxx> > Sent: Tuesday, May 10, 2005 11:35 AM > > > Yesterday I did something in Postgres that resulted in a non standard > error.
