Issue LOGBACK-1022 - Make DBAppender work with unreliable database connection has been successfully created. -----Original Message----- From: Logback-user [mailto:logback-user-bounces@qos.ch] On Behalf Of Ceki Gülcü Sent: Tuesday, October 07, 2014 4:47 PM To: logback users list Subject: Re: [logback-user] Using DBAppender with an unreliable database connection I think this merits a jira. Could you create it please? On 10/7/2014 21:10, Paul Krause wrote:
We are using logback 1.1.2 with slf4j 1.7.7. We have configured DBAppender to log to a SQL Server database from a Spring webapp under Tomcat using ch.qos.logback.core.db.DataSourceConnectionSource. This works fine, except that when the host reboots (this is Windows, after all), Tomcat restarts faster than SQL Server does, so when DataSourceConnectionSource is first started, it fails to connect to the database.
Is there a way to detect this and retry the connection, or a way for the application to check DBAppender's state and tell it to reconnect if needed? This is only a problem for logging, because by the time the application tries to connect, the database is up and ready to receive connections.
