How long is the reconnection to server after a connection issue occurs?

Hi Reuters,

My server experienced a network problem this afternoon, at first, the application tried to reconnect serval times; but then it reconnected every dozens minutes. However, if the network is OK between the dozens minutes, there will be a lot of data loss. So is there any solutions for this problem?

I have attched the error log.quotationreceiver2017-10-31error.zip

Hello @Raj.Huang,

What is the version of EMA Java you are using? Does the ADS server or your TREP server is running when a network problem occurs?

I cannot replicate the issue in my environment with EMA Java 1.1.1 by restart the ADS server or disconnect-reconnect network. The API can recover connection and subscription instantly. Please see my results in attachment.

Hi @Raj.Huang

Basically, the EMA connection/reconnect logic and time are based on the following EMA configurations

  • DictionaryRequestTimeOut
  • DirectoryRequestTimeOut
  • LoginRequestTimeOut
  • ReconnectAttemptLimit
  • ReconnectMaxDelay
  • ReconnectMinDelay

I have checked the given log file. It contains a lot of "login failed (timed out after waiting 45000 milliseconds) for 122.144.182.147:14002)", "Error - exceeded initialization timeout (5 s)", "dictionary retrieval failed (timed out after waiting 45000 milliseconds) for 122.144.182.147:14002)" messages. They mean the API cannot establish connection with the TREP server during that time (cannot login and request dictionary from TREP). Does the ADS (or EZD) was started during that time?

Please be inform that once the API can reconnect to TREP, it automatic resubscribes all items for the application and the application will receive the latest real time updated data.

If you need a "history" data during a connection lost period, you may need to use a Tick History API like Thomson Reuters Tick History (TRTH) - REST API to consume that Tick History data instead. Please note that provide Tick History data for each day is available when market close time + 120 minutes only.

Hi @Wasin Waeosri,

Thanks for your reply.

1st, I didn't set the EMA configurations, so it's all defalut value. Then, I notice that the reconnection delay should be from 1000ms to 5000ms, right? However, according to the log I attached, taking "Consumer_1_1" as an example, the interval reached 22 minutes which causes the problem mentioned in the 2nd point.

2nd, as the interval is too long, it may cause data loss. For example, my network is broken at 15:00 and it recovers at 16:10, and the application reconnects at 15:00, 15:20, 15:40, 16:00, 16:20, so my application reconnects at 16:20 successfully. However, the network recovers at 16:10, it should connect at 16:10 instead of 16:20, so I lost 10 minutes of data because of the long interval.

In a word, my application doesn't reconnect every (1000ms to 5000ms) according to the log, so can you help me check this?
