auto_reconnect (Score:2)

by vsergu (505)

I think your problem is related to the auto_reconnect setting in DBD::mysql, which was changed [cpan.org] recently so that it doesn't happen by default. Are you using a version of DBD::mysql older than 2.9002?

Some of my applications were depending on the reconnection, so they started breaking when I upgraded. I'm still trying to figure out how to get the old behavior, since setting auto_reconnect doesn't seem to solve the problem completely.

  I'm using 2.9002 which according to the ChangeLog turns on auto_reconnect if $ENV{MOD_PERL} is set. Now I know what's up I'll make sure it's turned off as that seems to make more sense.
