In collectd 5.4, there is a bug in write_graphite.c in wg_send_buffer() which I think was introduced with the “LogSendErrors” parameter. The workaround in 5.4 is to always set LogSendErrors to true (the default) and then collectd will always reconnect. At least...
it always does in my simple tests. In offline conversations with Andreas, this issue appears in 5.1, but I have no explanation for why it occurs there.

<blockquote type="cite">Hi,<br>
<br>
I just want to share that we are also seeing the effect that all our<br>
collectd clients stop sending data to carbon after we restart it. After<br>
we restart also the collectd clients everything works as expected again.<br>
<br>
<br>
Is there somebody working on this issue?<br>
Or is there some missing information which would help?<br>
<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
