Using DBeaver, I'm trying to connect to my AWS ec2 instance where I've installed a MariaDB database.

I've created a new connection as:

  • Connection: AWS / Maria DB
  • Server Host: localhost (because I'm using ssh to connect)
  • Database, Username and Password: the right ones
  • Port: 3306

SSH tunnel on the connection:

  • Use SSH Tunnel: checked
  • Host/IP, Port and User: as suggested by the AWS documentation
  • Auth: Public Key
  • Private key: file .pem (the one I'm also using to connect via ssh from command line)

The connection works great at the beginning. After some minutes of inactivity if I open a table the connection stucks and I need to invalidate/reconnect to fetch the data. This process sometimes is done by DBeaver, after 15 seconds of not fetching anything, but sometimes even if I wait 2 minutes it keeps running but fetching nothing.

Is there something I'm missing in my configuration? Or some configuration on the server maybe.. I don't know..

Have you ever had this problem?

    @nbk dbeaver ssh keep-alive is set to 0, tunnel connection timeout to 10000. On the ec2 instance in /etc/my.cnf there is nothing useful..

    Could it be the SSH Tunnel is "sleeping" during inactivity?

    @J.D. it could be, but I don't know how to prevent it from going to sleep or how to wake it up..
