java.net.SocketException: Broken pipe

[SHS Enterprises]

Hi,   I'm using an older version of IBATIS with MySQL database.  When the application is left unused for a period of time I get a Broken pipe error, the following:   java.net.SocketException: Broken pipe  at java.net.SocketOutputStream.socketWrite0(Native Method)  at java.net.SocketOutputStream.socketWrite(SocketOutputStream.java:92)  at java.net.SocketOutputStream.write(SocketOutputStream.java:136)  at java.io.BufferedOutputStream.flushBuffer(BufferedOutputStream.java:66)  at java.io.BufferedOutputStream.flush(BufferedOutputStream.java:124)  at com.mysql.jdbc.MysqlIO.send(MysqlIO.java:2620)  at com.mysql.jdbc.MysqlIO.send(MysqlIO.java:2551)  at com.mysql.jdbc.MysqlIO.sendCommand(MysqlIO.java:1515)  at com.mysql.jdbc.MysqlIO.sqlQueryDirect(MysqlIO.java:1625)  at com.mysql.jdbc.Connection.execSQL(Connection.java:2297)  at com.mysql.jdbc.Connection.execSQL(Connection.java:2226)  at com.mysql.jdbc.PreparedStatement.executeInternal(PreparedStatement.java:1812)  at com.mysql.jdbc.PreparedStatement.executeQuery(PreparedStatement.java:1657)  at com.ibatis.db.sqlmap.MappedStatement.runQueryForList(Unknown Source)  at com.ibatis.db.sqlmap.MappedStatement.executeQueryForList(Unknown Source)  at com.ibatis.db.sqlmap.SqlMap.executeQueryForList(Unknown Source)   I believe this is a timeout error where the connection is not reIeased and a new one made.   http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=7195   Is this a common error found by anyone else?  I haven't looked at the IBATIS source, can anyone point me to the code where I would have to fix this? Thanks ahead of time for any help you can offer.
