I love pgAdmin III. I use it when working at home. I'm stuck with II at work since my machine is W98, although it (II)has a feature I prefer over III. Anyway, here on the homefront, I'm connected via high-speed cable connection (1.5 meg). I get excellent performance, however, I find that pgAdmin drops the DB connection rather quickly if there is no activity. If I leave the interface for any amount of time, when I come back and click on anything, I get the error message:
"An error has occurred:
server closed the connection unexpectedly
This probably means the server terminated abnormally before of while processing the request."
After this I usually have to click through many dialog boxes telling me that there is no connection to the server.
If I look at the process list in the DB server, I can see all the connections I have made over a period just sitting there 'idle'.
There is nothing in the log that corresponds with the drop that I can tell except with the possibility of:
LOG: pq_recvbuf: recv() failed: Connection reset by peer
,but these may be from other clients.
What can I do to maintain the connection even if its idle? Thanks, Bill
