can't reconnect to local H2 DB after closing VPN connection

[goberreuter]

Hi all,

I wish to express my gratitude for such a useful tool, thanks DBeaver team!

I have the following situation:
I use the latest version 3.6.0, on Windows 8.1 64 bit, with java 1.8_74 (latest) 64 bit. I have a local H2 file database, and everything works OK. The problem is that I need to work connecting to my work LAN, so I use a VPN. After firing up the VPN, I can still connect to the local H2 file db. But if I close the VPN connection, Dbeaver "remembers" the local IP that was assigned to my PC from the VPN, so when I try to reconnect to the file db, DBeaver gives a time-out connection error, pointint out that it can not connect to the DB, and the error msg shows it tried to connect to the IP I got from the VPN.

I tried closing and opening DBeaver again, and nothing. The only thing that works for now is restaring my pc.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Looks like local windows DNS cache. DBeaver has nothing to do with it.
Try executing "ipconfig /flushdns" after VPN disconnect. No other ideas so far..
