Description Nanbor Wang 1999-08-06 13:32:13 CDT 
Karl Proese <Karl.Proese@erl9.siemens.de> submitted a bug report where a client
cannot reconnect to a server via the ImplRepo if it shuts down while the client
is running.
Comment 1 Nanbor Wang 1999-08-06 13:45:59 CDT 
This is caused by an problem with TAO not being able to detect a dropped
connection correctly on the client side.  When the server goes down, the next
call by the client is always COMPLETED=MAYBE, which means the client will not
go back to the ImplRepo to get a new IOR for the server.

I don't think there is any way to totally get rid of this problem, but most
cases will be covered if we would do something like reported in bug 303, where
before every call a LOCATE_REQUEST or something is used to verify that the
connection is still up.

Darrell is right, there is no perfect way to solve this problem. We explain the
situation in more detail in bug #303
