Description

Problem:
  • I have created a QGIS project with several layers based on Oracle data sources.
  • I am running QGIS 3.0 on a Windows machine.
  • I hibernate my machine and leave work for today.
  • The next morning I resume my work and when I wake my machine again QGIS doesn't draw the Oracle based layers.
  • I get the following python warning/error message: Error: ORA-03114: not connected to ORACLE
  • To try to work around the problem I then save the project and reload it hoping QGIS will reconnect.
  • When reloading the project QGIS cannot find the sources for the Oracle based layers and my only option is to press Cancel and let QGIS remove my layers.
Result:
  • My project is lost or I need to revert to a previous saved copy (if I have one) where I had connection while saving the project (I ticked the Crashes QGIS or corrupts data due to this).
Expected behavior:
  1. I would expect QGIS to try to reconnect the layers if the connection is lost.
  2. Secondary QGIS could give me the option to click reconnect somewhere.

P.S.: I tried just hibernating my computer and wake it immediately afterwards, and the connection persist, making it more difficult to reproduce.
