Description Fridolin Somers 2015-06-10 12:51:54 UTC
BDIx::Connector doc indicates that handler option mysql_auto_reconnect must be false.
See http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?DBIx%3A%3AConnector%3A%3ADriver%3A%3Amysql

So it should not be setted in C4::Context

Bug 14374 - dont use mysql_auto_reconnect with BDIx::Connector

BDIx::Connector doc indicates that handler option mysql_auto_reconnect must be false.
See http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?DBIx%3A%3AConnector%3A%3ADriver%3A%3Amysql

This patch removes this option setting in C4::Context

Test plan :
- Check connection to database does not fail for a long time page, such as a huge report

Curious new DBIx user questions: 

1/ Shouldn't this bug be dependent on bug #14375 ?

2/ Unless it is dependent on ^^^, would it not be better to set it to "0" instead of removing it? 

<quote>Note that if you are using a module or framework that performs reconnections for you (for example DBIx::Connector in fixup mode), this value must be set to 0.</quote> - http://search.cpan.org/~capttofu/DBD-mysql-4.031/lib/DBD/mysql.pm

thanks

Shouldn't this bug be merged into Bug 14375?
You cannot disable
- $dbh->{mysql_auto_reconnect} = 1;
Without first introducing the DBIx::Connector?

Bug 14375 does not introduce the use of DBIx::Connector, it's Bug 13645 pushed since 3.16.
Comment 5 Jonathan Druart 2015-11-11 13:07:21 UTC
DBIx::Connector is now gone, see bug 14778.
