Re: [Quickfix-developers] Initiator Reconnect?

[Robert L. <le...@qe...>]

I actually had the ReconnectInterval property set and the reconnect attempt
only occurred once. If the server was not up at that time, no additional
reconnects are made.

Doh... when looking at the configuration docs, I searched for "disconnect",
"drop", etc... and apparently never looked for "reconnect".  I will try this
and see if it works, however according to the docs, the default is 30
seconds and I waited longer that for the reconnect.  Also according to what
I observed, a reconnect was attempting once after 15 seconds. 

Thanks for pointing me in (hopefully) the right direction.

What does your config look like?  Is your initiator configured to
attempt to reconnect?

See "ReconnectInterval" in the "Initiator" section:

Things seem to be working as expected however if the client starts up after
the executor server or the executor server goes down and doesn’t come up
within 15 seconds, the client doesn’t attempt to connect to it. I assume
that  should expect the client to retry connecting to the server but that is
not happening and do I see anything relevant in the docs at
http://www.quickfixengine.org/quickfix/doc/html/index.html
