Thread: pgAdmin on Mac connecting to Postgres 9 on Linux - SSL/timeout issue
I have a Postgres 9 server running on a server out on the Internet and I connect to it with pgAdmin on OS/X over an SSL connection. I notice if I keep the connection open and idle for maybe an hour or so, when I try to run a query it either times out or pgAdmin just kinda freezes up and I have to force quit.. Is there some sort of idle timeout setting on SSL connections, or maybe it has to re-negotiate the connection after a certain amount of idle time and it's not doing that right? Anyone run into this before? Thanks! Mike

Thanks! I don't know about pgAdmin or SSL, but I have heard that routers and switches can have a timeout limit: "the idle time after which an established connection of any protocol closes". http://search.gmane.org/?query=router+timeout&group=gmane.comp.lang.inug-4d.tech --Basil Bourque

Maybe that's it.. It's definitely some sort of SSL thing since it didn't start happening until I enabled SSL. I guess I'll just have to close pgAdmin when I'm not using it..

Sorry this is an extremely old thread, but I finally got around to tracking down the problem.. Added these lines to postgres.conf and poof, problem gone.. tcp_keepalives_idle = 60 # TCP_KEEPIDLE, in seconds; tcp_keepalives_interval = 10 # TCP_KEEPINTVL, in seconds; tcp_keepalives_count = 5 # TCP_KEEPCNT; Hope this helps someone else!
