 Thanks for the response.  No, I am not exceeding the max limit.  I tried
a test which would exceed the max connections (which is 100 - set in

Are any errors showing up in the PostgreSQL logs?

Also, are do you have any of your already established connections in your
pool being that are begin disconnected?  If so, you may be having
intermittent network problems.

The error you are getting implies that you are having connectivity problems
between servers.  I am tomcat and PostgreSQL are running on separate
machines.  Have you tried replicating this problem by running tomcat and
PostgreSQL on the same machine and connecting to localhost?

Are you exceeding the maximum allowed connections in PostgreSQL?  I would
start by checking the PostgreSQL logs.  If nothing shows up, it may be a
network or application configuration issue.
