Hi Brennan, You can force Django to reopen the database connection by:
>>> from django.db import connection >>> connection.close() Django will then automatically reconnect to the database when it needs it. Obviously, it's up to you to figure out where to put this code in your application (it might be difficult). And, I just realized that I don't know what happens if the database is down when you call connection.close(), so you'd have to test it. (the code is not multi-db aware, but you can easily adapt that). Cheers Jirka -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
