My comment won't be that helpful - but I started out at the same place - each morning I came in a got a call from staff saying the pages with content pulled from the dbase was down.
One thing I know, as others suggested, it has to do with the JDBC/connection - in our case it happens when the network connection between our linux box and our sql box os broken at some point - I think the ISP does late night maintenance on the line (this is setup on an office DSL line). We are still working to isolate the problem - but it does seem to be JDBC related. I have tried simply pulling the cable on the back of one box for a few seconds and the connection does die and will not reconnect. I plan to post back to the group when we get a better sense of the problem - we are still fooling with it. In our case we are using MSSQL with the MS JDBC driver. I thought I saw a post somewhere that said the mySQL driver had a autoReconnect=true setting - I think I saw it on the Apache site. I hope you figure things out.

And I thought perhaps MySQL was the problem - but I was told by some people using Oracle and PostgreSQL databases that they'd seen the problem as well. I tried putting in some code to set the driver time-out value, but evidently I didn't do it correctly, as the problem persisted. I don't see the error with versions of Tomcat previous to 4.1.x, tho.
