[Kea-users] 1.3.0 beta not working with mysql

Hi Bill:

No, you don't need anything pre-inserted into the lease table(s).   
What's puzzling is the error code of 0 being reported.
We are invoking mysql_stmt_bind_param (a mysql client library func) and
it is failing BUT the mysql library error code is 0.
There is/was a mysql client library bug where that was true but for
mysql_stmt_execute().   This occurred when a client using prepared
statements got disconnected for being idle and was configured to use
auto-reconnect.   Upon reconnect we would try to use
our now invalid prepared statements.  We addresses this with ticket:

 https://kea.isc.org/ticket/5354

But the symptoms for that were slightly different than you report.  Part
of that resolution of that ticket was to code kea to 1: turn of
auto-reconnect and 2: set the idle timeout to an extremely large
value.   Prior to setting it we were subject the global value, which by
default is 28800 seconds but the user had configured his system to set
to 60 seconds. 

I find it hard to see how your environment could be circumventing those
changes.  I only mention it now because of the error code being 0.
Normally, mysql client library functions always return a non-zero error
code when they fail.  It makes it doubly frustrating because client
side errors like this are not logged by the server.

So a couple of questions:

1. Is this just a normal, dynamic client (i.e. no host reservations
involved) ?
2. How long after Kea starts up is it before the client interaction begins ?
3. I'm assuming this happens every time a client request comes in?


Thanks,

Thomas Markwalder
