Hi Abhilash, We recently face this problem and found bug in Weblogic App server. It doesn't close the connections in case of "Interrupted Requests" from browser. There is a patch available with BEA.

Hi All: We are using Oracle Thin Type 4 Driver with Weblogic App Server version 5.1 for our JDBC Connections and use Prepared Statements. We also have specified the maximum connections to be 100 in the weblogic properties and in our DAO's we close the PreparedStatement, ResultSet and Connection in the finally block. But there are STILL instances where the connections are not being closed even when the following code is executed: try{ //create connection,etc. }catch(SQLException sqlExc){ //handle error }finally{ try { if(rs != null){ rs.close(); } if(prepStmt != null){ prepStmt.close(); } if(con != null){ con.close(); } } catch(SQLException e) {;} } Problem faced: Exceeding the maximum number of connections due to inactive open connections. Has anyone faced this problem? I thought that the finally block is executed no matter what and is the best place to close connections to ensure a proper clean - up! Can anyone please suggest what am I doing wrong here? Thanks in advance. Abhi __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
