Hot deploy problem in Tomcat with proxool and oracle - oracle

I have a problem concerning with proxool and oracle driver in Tomcat.
The web application I use contains a webservice jar file using metro and a servlet to initialize / start the proxool pool. The proxool pool is configured with an oracle connection. When the service is called, it fetches a connection from the pool, executes a statement and returns. I close the resultset, the statement and the connection in the service method afterwards.
When I now try to hot undeploy the web application, the servlet stops proxool pool by ProxoolFacade.shutdown(); in it's destroy method.
The problem is, that the hot undeploy can not finish because the Oracle driver ojdbc5.jar can not be deleted from the folder of the extracted web application.
Trying the same with a SQL server database and the jtds driver it works without this problem.
Used versions:
Apache Tomcat 6.0.18
Oracle 11g JDBC driver 11.1.0.6.0
Proxool 0.9.1
Anyone has an idea?
Regards Timo

You must add the Oracle driver to the Tomcat instance and configure Tomcat JNDI with an Oracle datasoure.
This way, the driver will stay alive when the app is terminated and Tomcat will control the pooling of the DB connections. The reason for your problem is that some DB drivers "hook" into the VM. This means that Tomcat can't unload the classes during redeploy -- there are still references around.
I'd even suggest to try to move proxool into the Tomcat server and have Tomcat manage the pools for you. That would make hot deploy much faster and more reliable, even if you leak connections.

weblogic11g datasource not releasing the connections to the pool

We have developed a Java application with the below specifications.
Frameworks: spring,hibernate
Database: oracle
Server: weblogic 11g
Problem here is when we use Weblogic Data Source the connections are not releasing to the pool which is causing Database server RAM consumption completely after some transactions. But when we use basic Data source in the application the connections are releasing immediately after each transaction and there was no RAM consumption at Database server end. How can I use container based data source?
This will depend on the parameters which you have selected while configuring data source for weblogic. Please check the following
1) Do not enable "Pinned to Thread" properties
2) Enable "Inactive connection time out" to appropriate value. It may be possible that you application has leaked connection

WSO2 ESB 4.0.3 and governance registry configuration

I have one server running the ESB and another running the governance registry.
I am using the embedded h2 database. I can't connect the ESB to the Registry.
I get the following error
SQLNestedException: Cannot create JDBC driver of class 'org.h2.Driver' for connect URL
The jar with the the driver is in the path and works with a local h2 instance.
Any help appreciated
I believe this can be due to the h2 database not being able to accept multiple connections. But you need to provide more details to answer this question? Perhaps the entire stack trace. Usually, when we work with remote registries we use mysql or similar as the DB.
Since the h2 driver is shipped and it's already in the classpath anyway, it can't be due to a problem with the h2 driver, unless you changed the driver.

How to get a new Connection from Hibernate SessionFactory after the DB restart without restarting the tomcat?

In my web application I am using hibernate & spring. The Hibernate SessionFactory object is being injected as a spring bean at the time of tomcat server start up. Normally it is working fine. But the problem arises when I shut down or even restart my database.
After restarting my database if I retrieve a session from Hibernate SessionFactory object and want to execute query i am getting org.hibernate.exception.JDBCConectionException: Could not execute query exception.
To overcome this problem I need to restart the tomcat server. After restart it creates the new SessionFactory object, so I don’t get the exception.
In a situation how can I get a new fresh connection with the database, so that I don’t need to restart the server again & again.
SessionFactory rebuild worked for me
Our app is using tomcat, hibernate(3.5.1) and Oracle db (there are actualy two instances - one is the main for the application and the second one - remote)
sometimes remote db restarts, after that exception occurs on each call
JDBCConnectionException:could not execute query
Caused by: SQLRecoverableException: No more data to read from socket
Fistly I added to configuration
hibernate.dbcp.validationQuery=select 1 from dual
hibernate.dbcp.testOnBorrow=true
hibernate.dbcp.testOnReturn=true
but without result.
Then I tried to close sessions and recreate it.
Finally what worked for me - after this exeption
sessionFactory recreate
sessionFactory.close();
sessionFactory = annotationConfiguration.buildSessionFactory();
This is not really Spring or Hibernate related. What you need to do is to setup your JDBC connection pool to test connections before returning them to whoever needs them (e.g. Hibernate). If the pool discovers that the connection in the pool is broken, it dicards it and tries another one from the pool. If all connections in the pool are broken, the pool will try to create new ones. Everything is transparent and your application won't even notice.
Which connection pool you use? In dbcp set validationQuery to"SELECT 1" nd consider setting: testOnBorrow=true, testOnReturn=true and testWhileIdle=true. For c3p0 check out the documentation.

Database failure shuts down ActiveMQ windows service using JDBC persistence

I have an ActiveMQ broker running as a Windows service. Its using jdbcPersistenceAdapter with Oracle data source and Oracle's Universal Connection Pooling (UCP).
When the database is down (due to network problems or scheduled maintenance), the ActiveMQ windows service shuts down completely. This, of course makes the broker unavailable even after the database is restored.
I have tried connection validation in UCP, DBCP with connection validation and even MySQL data source without any success. The service shuts down within 30 seconds of database failure (I believe this is because the default cleanupInterval is 30 seconds).
Is there a way to prevent the windows service from shutting down and make it wait for database availability?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Here is my current configuration from activemq.xml:
<persistenceAdapter>
<jdbcPersistenceAdapter dataSource="#oracle-ds"/>
</persistenceAdapter>
<bean id="oracle-ds" class="oracle.ucp.jdbc.PoolDataSourceFactory"
factory-method="getPoolDataSource" p:URL="jdbc:oracle:thin:#localhost:1521:amq"
p:connectionFactoryClassName="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource"
p:validateConnectionOnBorrow="true" p:user="appuser" p:password="userspassword" />
generally, you should use a JDBC master/slave to support failover from another broker when the database becomes unavailable...
see http://activemq.apache.org/jdbc-master-slave.html
that said, there is a known issue with JDBC master/slave failover that was fixed in 5.6.0...
see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-1958

Access Denied randomly when connecting to mysql

I have a very rare problem it is a java web application with jsf 2.0, spring 3.0.3 and jpa2 eclipselink implementation running on tomcat 7 when deploying the application to server it run correctly without any errors and after random period of time it return Access Denied for user "user#host" and all i need to do is just restarting tomcat to work again.
Please help if you know anything about this problem.
Thanks,
Are you leaking connections?
It sounds like you're using up all the connections and MySQL won't let you create new ones.
