Description JH 2018-08-29 15:19:13 UTC
Dear kst-team,
1st of all I must say again - kst is a great tool!

Now my issue:
If plotting live data from datasource = network folder e.g. 
\\192.168.2.xx\__.csv
everything works fine until network connection is disconnected. 
kst freezes and must be restarted to update live plot charts again. 

How can this be solved?

kst version = Windows 2.0.8

Best regards
Joerg

Hmmm... Sounds like the OS locks the open file, blocking the failed read forever.

I think I've had a similar problem with NSF on linux.

Is the GUI fully frozen?  If not, "reload all data sources" button on the toolbar (or File->reload all data sources ) should work.  But if the GUI is fully frozen, then we will need some other approach.
Comment 2 JH 2018-08-29 18:41:22 UTC
Yes the GUI is fully frozen => reload not possible
Comment 3 Netterfield 2018-08-29 18:43:58 UTC
grrr... the OS is freezing the read.

This is a royal pain to deal with I fear.

sigh
