Our Tomcat instance has been hanging add odd intervals.
We see many, many identical thread dumps like this:
http-8082-Processor84" daemon prio=10 tid=0x0887c000 nid=0x5663 in

There is clearly something pathological going on but I'm not sure what.
It looks to me like this and all the other threads are waiting on
org.apache.commons.dbcp.AbandonedObjectPool which is locked by another
thread. But I can not deduce much more.
We are using dbcp-1.0. The code handles connections rather strangely
but it seems to be closing them correctly. There is one static
Connection object and a call to a local getConnection() calls close() on
this static connection then replaces it with a connection returned by a
call to BasicDataSource.getConnection().
There is one exception handler that calls close() on the BasicDataSource
and then creates a new one. I thought this might be the problem, that
somehow the connections associated with the previous BasicDataSource
were still being held but I can't see a scenario that would do this.
We are also using a BasicDataSource in our Spring enabled DAOs but there
is no common code sheared by these and the legacy code that is being
fingered by the thread dump.
Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated,
