Automatically reconnect to SQL Server?

paul's profile image paul posted 3 years ago in General Permalink

Hi,

I notice that if my connection drops to a MySQL database (eg. when computer goes to sleep, switch WiFi, etc), then HeidiSQL can automatically reconnect, or I can press F5 to trigger a reconnect. This is very convenient and I like it!

But if I am connected to a SQL Server database, it doesn't :( I can only disconnect or close the app and connect again manually.

Any chance you could add the same automatic reconnect behaviour for SQL Server databases?

Thanks

Same thing just noticed here. Not sure why that is no longer working.

Could you please file a bug report for that issue?

Please fix this, because it's inefficient if I return to the distributed work the next day and the connection is lost. I have to reconnect and lose the view I had before. It would be enough to just check if the connection is good and if not, connect automatically. Check maybe a max of 5 times to avoid looping in case of a real network connection loss.

Such a basic and necessary feature that I wonder why wasn't implemented already. I've the latest version for windows and every-time there is a problem with the internet connection it crashes I need to reopen and do everything again.
