It isn't something obvious built into our webapp, but it would seem to be a
method we are calling in the jdbc driver. There is no record of a
'select_user' anywhere when doing a grep, but our Java developers have found
the issue now. The code wasn't changed between versions which is odd seeing
as the issue only arose on the newer version - and I have replicated this.

Anyway, they are now going to work around the issue, not calling that method
any more. If I find the exact method it is off them I will re-post.

Thanks

Have you tried:

$ grep -i "select_user" `find src -type f`

??

Tomcat itself is definitely not doing this to you.
