Hi Victor, There are no "constant" errors in the sql package if thats what you are looking for.
Generally if .Ping() returns an error there is no connection - afaik the error string might give some indication but it is totally up to the driver/database. If you want to sleep and try again later you can do it this way - but the reason why .Ping() didn't succeed is unknown.
