All - I have been struggling with DB connection errors with PAX-JDBC for a while now, and I couldn't really get my mind around it.
Just today I noticed something really bizar. On a Windows Server, PAX-JDBC (sometimes) ends up in a loop creating DB connections until the OS runs out of resources. This is the error message: 2017-06-19 16:34:53,676 [ERROR] qtp1288985130-157 MyRepositoryImpl:686 Exception [EclipseLink-4002] (Eclipse Persistence Services - 2.6.2.v20151217 -774c696): org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.DatabaseException Internal Exception: com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.CommunicationsException: The driver was unable to create a connection due to an inability to establish the client portion of a socket. This is usually caused by a limit on the number of sockets imposed by the operating system. This limit is usually configurable. For Unix-based platforms, see the manual page for the 'ulimit' command. Kernel or system reconfiguration may also be required. For Windows-based platforms, see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 196271 ( Q196271). Error Code: 0 When I do a netstat -an | find "<db ip>" I see thousands and thousands of connections (or at least attempted connections, I don't recall the state of the connection). One other interesting thing to note is that if I increase the maxTotal AND the maxIdle values in the config below, the problem doesn't happen, or at least a lot less frequent. osgi.jdbc.driver.class=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver url=jdbc:mysql://my_db_server:3306/mydb?useSSL=false dataSourceName=jdbc/mynonjta user=<user> password=<password> databaseName=<mydb> pool=dbcp2 #jdbc.pool.timeBetweenEvictionRunsMillis=1000 #jdbc.pool.softMinEvictableIdleTimeMillis=7000 jdbc.pool.maxTotal=25 jdbc.pool.maxIdle=25 #jdbc.pool.minIdle=10 Could it be that the maxTotal and maxIdle being the same causes some havoc here? The idea is to never close connections once they are open, but I might have misunderstood the settings for these properties. OS Microsof Windows Server 2012 R2. Java 8 PAX-JDBC 1.1.0 Please Advise. It seems fairly reproducible so let me know when there is anything you would like me to test.
