Description

Whenever a PostgreSQL connection is marked as persistent (CONN_MAX_AGE = None) and a LiveServerTestCase is executed, the connection from the server thread is never closed, leading to inability to drop the test database.

We are using only TestCase and TransactionTestCases in our code. CONN_MAX_AGE is set to 180.

Patch needs improvement: set

The test is currently failing for me, as wrapped_close seems to be called after the test assertion.

I also wonder if closing the connections should happen in LiveServerTestCase._tearDownClassInternal, but then it will be even more difficult to test :-(

It turns out the patch was not closing _all_ connections properly - just whatever happened to be in conn. Fixed.

This patch is still not working for me on an up to date master.

On a side note, it might be related to #22420 and #22003.

Can you share the results you are getting, along with the environment? I'm always getting a success.

I also ran into this issue with Django 1.9.7.

What I observed is that with CONN_MAX_AGE=None, after LiveServerTestCase.tearDownClass(), querying PostgreSQL's pg_stat_activity shows a lingering connection in state "idle" (which was a connection created by the test case).

It looks like the culprit may be Django's LiveServerThread. The idle connections are not closed when the thread terminates. It looks like that's what the most recent patch proposes.

Other info:

PostgreSQL 9.3.13, psycopg2 2.6.2, Python 3.5.2.

I posted a pull request for this here. Also, I confirmed on the CI servers that the test I added fails on six of the build configurations (mysql, postgres, and postgis) without the change.
