Kontact/akonadi should handle DB connection loss gracefully and seemlessly
Closed, ResolvedPublic
Actions

Description

It looks like a lost connection to DB server (in central akonadi DB setup) makes all Kontacts freeze, do not respond and requires akonadictl restart. That is completely nightmare in case of DB restart or failover. The expected behavior would be that akonadi tries to reconnect and if it fails show a dialog box, where user could do "refresh" to make akonadi restart.

This is a non-trivial change that will require extensive experimentation, planning, development and testing.
