I would like to start my Java/Play! Service even though the Database is not yet reachable. So far, if the database is not available the service stops. Is it possible in Play to try and reconnect every second or so without completely stopping the service and reconnecting to db as soon as connection is available.
Our application.conf currently looks like this:
play.evolutions.enabled=false
//play.db.pool=bonecp
db {
default.driver=org.postgresql.Driver
default.url="jdbc:postgresql://postgresdb.postgres:5432/postcode"
default.username="<username>"
default.password="<strong-password>"
}
play.db {
config = "db"
prototype.hikaricp = {
connectionTimeout = 250 milliseconds
initializationFailFast = false
readOnly = true
}
}
ebean.default = ["models.*"]
Currently I get the following logs:

Indicating that the server does not stop altogether but tries to connect to db multiple times which is as desired. But if the database becomes available the following logs are written:

The server cannot reach out to the database even though it is available now. If I restart the server the database will be found and can be worked with, but the database lways has to be there on startup. How can I fix that, so that the app can be started independently of the database?
If the database becomes unavailable after the application has started it is no problem after the db becomes available again. it is automatically reconnected.
Any help is greatly apreciated!
