             Summary: JDBC connection processors hang after network disruptions.
                 Key: NIFI-5607
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-5607
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core Framework
    Affects Versions: 1.6.0
            Reporter: eric twilegar


I use a VPN connection to connect to our AWS VPC. openVPN can sometimes just 
drop the connection.

If i'm developing a task that connects to postgres over VPN and my vpn 
connection drops any processors using the service hangs. The processors 
themselves won't stop nor the service.

I don't see this issue on production since the networking is far more 
consistent. 

What is odd is that the database connection is not going through the VPN, but 
DNS is. The db connection is actually through an SSH tunnel. I'm using ip 
addresses though, so I'm not really sure why the networking would even be 
disrupted, but it sure does. Maybe its just a linux thing on the network stack 
with openvpn. Either way Nifi isn't handling some type of networking issue in 
there. 

I'll take a look at the code later, as I'm sure this will be a hard ticket to 
reproduce for any developer. If I get some time maybe I'll see if I can 
reproduce it with mysql to eliminate postgres JDBC drivers as the culprit.

I know there was some posts about the desire to "hard stop" processors and/or 
services. At the moment I have to restart the entire server.

Thanks!
