I'm getting Unable to acquire JDBC Connection exception - spring

Question

I'm running a spring-boot application with hibernate and spring-data. I I have the following method:
#Service
class SomeService(private val repository : SomeRepository){
fun someEndPoint(request: Request, Id: Long): UUID? {
return try {
val enNumber = repository.callEncrypt(request.accountNumber)
val entity = SomeEntity().apply{
this.id = Id
this.enNumber = enNumber
}
repository.save(entity)
} catch (e: Exception) {
LOGGER.error("someEndPoint",e)
throw e
}
}
}
When I run this method fourth times I got the Unable to acquire JDBC Connection exception. I suspect that when I call the stored procedure "callEncrypt" hibernate is not releasing the connection after the job is done, because if I remove that line the application works perfectly, there's no way to close the connection manually since hibernate is handling the transaction (and there's no reason to do it), so I've been stuck with this for a while and I don't know what can be happening.
The weird thing is when I look for active connections in sql server with sp_who procedure, there's no active connections and the only solution I have now is to restart the application. If I restart the application everything works fine again until I run this function fourth times again, so it's obvious that hibernate is never releasing the connection.
Here's the full stack trace:

Any help would be very appreciated.

Answer 1

After trying several approaches for a while I found two ways to get this working.
Create a new EntityManager via EntityManagerFactory and use EntityManager.close() method.
Just annotate the repository method with #Transactional annotation as suggested in #Procedure annotation orphaning database connections (spring-data-jpa). I know a repository is not the best place to put a #Transactional annotation but it worked like charm.
Maybe you might want to mark this post as a duplicate, but anyway, my first solution seems to be working too.
Thanks!

Answer 2

#RubenFrancoD, I tried your second approach, i.e #Transactional, it worked, but only to a certain extent, and then the errors kept coming.
My use case:
I was running parallel connections to the DB(Oracle 12c) - 1 instance - to test if I get different sequence values from a sequence. As the parallel connections increase, there was a point where I got "ORA-12519, TNS:no appropriate service handler found"
What worked:
The number of processes was hitting the limit. I increased it.
ALTER system SET processes=XXX SCOPE=SPFILE;
Increase XXX incrementally(like +200 or so), because if you increase it to a too high value in 1 go, you might not be able to start your Oracle instance, as it cannot support it(READ: memory limitation, operating system limitation, ...)
commit;
Restart DB.
(IMPORTANT: Do not forget to restart the DB, to make the change effective in the spfile. For both static and dynamic parameters, changes are recorded in the spfile, and will only take effect in the next restart.)
Finally verify that the change(limit_value) took effect:
select resource_name, current_utilization, max_utilization, limit_value
from v$resource_limit
where resource_name = 'processes';
show parameters processes; // will also work
NOTE: You might notice that the sessions parameters will also change. This is because sessions and processes work hand-in-hand, and Oracle will compute the sessions limit_value based on the chosen processes limit_value.
