Have you tried:

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

??

Tomcat itself is definitely not doing this to you.

RE: Tomcat 5.5.26 running 'select_user' for every transaction

2011-11-02 Thread David Kirtland
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

Re: Tomcat 5.5.26 running 'select_user' for every transaction

2011-11-02 Thread Konstantin Kolinko
2011/11/2 David Kirtland dkirtl...@epitiro.com:
 Hi,

 Since upgrading from Tomcat 5.5.20 to 5.5.26 (Debian Etch to Lenny - apt
 versions)

Haven't you considered upgrading to 5.5.34?
5.5.26 is better than 5.5.20 but any way it is more than 3 years old.

Though any 5.5.x version will reach its end of life in less than a
year from now.

Best regards,
Konstantin Kolinko

Not calling which method?  On which driver?

How much other old code/libraries are you using, if you're using a 3
year old Tomcat?
