The pool manager built into Tomcat handles this just fine. Also ensure you have the latest drivers.

This is a MySql problem. It shuts down connections if they have been
idle for too long. You need a pool manager that takes care of this.
Something like c3p0 will do the job.

hello all,
I am Krishnakant Mane from India.  I own a software
firm and we generally implement our systems on linux
and all open source servers like jakarta tomcat and
apache server in particular.  of late I have been
facing a strange problem with tomcat.
I am a tomcat 5 aka 5.0.25 user.  I have deployed an
database based application using mysql as the
back-end.  I use mysql jdbc driver to connect to the
database.
the application runs fine for a long time.  I check it
personally for the entire day.  since our developers
work on the server the entire day, I am sure there is
that it works.  but when we shut our office and come
next day morning, the application does not respond.
what could be the problem.
it is strange to see that when the server is under
some kind of a small work load it works absolutely
fine.  but when we don't touch it for the entire night
the thing sympally does not work.  does tomcat also
require warm-up?  haha.
by the way, I have kept the jdbc (jar) library in the
common/lib directory as all my applications are
database based.  is it the right thing to do?
and lastly what steps should I take to avoid the above
mentioned problem.  one thing I will like to mention.
when the application give problem in the morning, it
responds with just the title and when it comes to the
database connection it gets stuck I believe.  but when
I run some console app with the same jdbc driver it
properly connects to the same database/table.  and the
application works fine when I reload again.
Please provide some valuable feedback
thanks
Krishnakant.
