The error message Sync session became inactive indicates that the device is offline, and the sync client is waiting for the connection to be established before trying to sync data.

I suggest that you add a connection listener to monitor the connectivity.

Thanks @kneth

We have observed few more bugs here in bugsnag with below error:

[kneth]

@vatsal-gadhiya-searce Do you know under which conditions, you observe the above crashes? Do you call reconnect() in your app?

[dhavalChangani]

@kneth The above scenario happens when the app is minimized via hardware backpress and when the user opens the app again it will crash after 2-3 seconds.

we are not calling reconnect() in our app

[Premshankar-Searce]

@kneth Could you please clarify where the "promise rejection tracking" error is originating from? We are observing an unhandled error that seems unrelated to the sync configuration we have set:

sync={{
  flexible: true,
  onError: handleSyncError,
}}

The error isn't being captured by the onError handler in our sync setup, and we are trying to determine the source of this issue. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

[kneth]

A promise rejection tracking is RN's way to say that a rejected promise hasn't been handled. As you give a very short code snippet and no context, it is difficult to say where it comes from. It could be a timeout when opening the database (you are calling Realm.open() indirectly. Do you have a [fallback[(https://github.com/realm/realm-js/blob/main/packages/realm-react/src/RealmProvider.tsx#L49) for the RealmProvider? If so, can you get any useful information here?

[Premshankar-Searce]

Yes, we're using the fallback component, but we're still encountering the "Sync session became inactive" warning. This error consistently appears on the main devices whenever the app starts up. Is there a way to prevent this or handle it more effectively?

[kneth]

Sync session became inactive indicates that the device has been disconnected. It is only a warning, and the sync client will automatically try to establish the connection. You can check the connection if needed.
