Agent will not reconnect after network interruption #182

On OSX if you have the agent running interactively and the network connection is interrupted, the agent will never reconnect. You have to kill the process an restart it.

That's not the case and I just reverified.

The agent opens an http long poll with the server listening for build messages. It keeps looping and steps off 15 seconds at a time reconnecting. Today I verified with disconnecting the network cables, closing the laptop, putting it to sleep etc... Once it connected back up it started listening again.

A specific build can get interupted but the agent session will reconnect and listen for more messages.

If you have more details and trace logs (_diag folder under the agent) then reactivate.
