Odd issue with 1.6.1 (as opposed to 1.5.5)

[François Schiettecatte]

Hi

I am wondering if there is something about CONN_MAX_AGE in 1.6.1 and accessing objects from a script (as opposed to as part of an HTTP request).

I have set CONN_MAX_AGE to 60 (seconds) but I don't see the connection closing after that interval. In fact I am seeing the connection idle for more than 60 seconds (checking this in MySQL) and being reused by subsequent object accesses.

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/ref/databases/#persistent-connections
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/ref/settings/#std:setting-CONN_MAX_AGE

Am I missing something?

Cheers

François

The connection age check (and subsequent closing) is initiated only by a
signal being fired at the end of a request.
