Description

Using qgis and postgres/postgis.
I notice that when I stop my work for a lot of time (40-50 minutes), postgres logically close the connection for client inactivity.
When I try to continue my work, qgis will hang waiting postgres will response. And is necessary to kill qgis and restart it.

I guess actually qgis open the connection to the postgres when I add a postgres table to the canvas and i presume it will remain open forever.
Instead qgis should test the connection every 10-15 minutes for every distinct istance of postgres used in the canvas and try to reopen the connection if it is find closed.

Which version do you use? master should survive connection losses.

Hi Jurgen, I'm using master. Just tested a 1 hour idle time, after that any action makes qgis hang.

Not reproducable here. And debug output?

oops, it is again here.
I still experience with this bug.

After a while, when postgres close the connection,
qgis hang because don't re-open the connection.

I use postgres 9.1.3 and postgis 2.0 beta2.
Also I use qgis-dev (for windows ) 3a2c0e9.

This may be not a QGIS problem after all. What I have noticed is that if I connect to a PostgreSQL server that is the same "local" network (in my case is the pretty big network of a University) then the connection does not fall. If I connect to the same server but from a remote connection then the connection falls after a while. I say that is probably not a QGIS problem because the same thing happens also with PgAdmin.
