Hi, I'm running syslog-ng v. 3.2.4 on SLES 10. There are three defined MySQL DB destinations. Everything is running fine, until the MySQL server resets the connection(s) after a defined idle time if no messages are send to this database. The problem is that syslog-ng doesn't reconnect the disconnected connection ;) I have to restart syslog-ng to bring it back to life. Is there any posssibility to reopen the DB connection instead of disabling the idle timeout on the MySQL side? syslog-ng[4904]: Error running SQL query; type='mysql', host='snsanmg8429', port='', user='syslog', database='SysLog', error='20 06: MySQL server has gone away', query='CREATE TABLE SysLog_Brocade_2011_06_09 (Host varchar(255), Facility varchar(255), Priority varchar(255), Level varchar (45), Date varchar(45), Program varchar(255), Message varchar(700))' syslog-ng[4904]: Error creating table, giving up; table='SysLog_Brocade_2011_06_09' syslog-ng[4904]: Error checking table, disconnecting from database, trying again shortly; time_reopen='60' syslog-ng[4904]: Error running SQL query; type='mysql', host='snsanmg8429', port='', user='syslog', database='SysLog', error='20 06: MySQL server has gone away', query='CREATE TABLE SysLog_Brocade_2011_06_09 (Host varchar(255), Facility varchar(255), Priority varchar(255), Level varchar (45), Date varchar(45), Program varchar(255), Message varchar(700))' Jun 9 09:43:56 snnasmg8421 syslog-ng[4904]: Error creating table, giving up; table='SysLog_Brocade_2011_06_09' M.
