Hi,
I have a multithreaded C client and sometimes I receive the "no connection to the server" error message.
I haven't found any documentation about it and about how to fix this issue.

Anyone can point me to the right direction?
How can I fix it?

Thanks a lot.

The error message is reported in interfaces/libpq/fe-exec.c:

static bool
PQsendQueryStart(PGconn *conn)
{
if (!conn)
return false;

/* clear the error string */
resetPQExpBuffer(&conn->errorMessage);

/* Don't try to send if we know there's no live connection. */
if (conn->status != CONNECTION_OK)
{
printfPQExpBuffer(&conn->errorMessage,
libpq_gettext("no connection to the server\n"));
return false;
}

So it looks like you closed the connection (maybe in some other thread)
and then try to reuse it.

Yours,
Laurenz Albe

Please add more details of the

- version of Postgres.
- Platform and OS details

Are you using any Middleware like pgpool or pgbouncer?

Have you tried looking in the Postgres log for additional information?
