Hi,

I'm an application admin for NiFi (among others) within my company. NiFi is 
very new to me and to my colleagues as well.

We're running into an issue with one of our flows where a PutDatabaseRecord 
processor halts with the following error: " Cannot get a connection, pool error 
Timeout waiting for idle object". Writing is done  to a SQL Server database.

The flow executes daily, and this doesn't happen every time. Currently when 
this happens, we disable the controller service and re-enable it. That gets the 
data through.

I was wondering if somebody here could shed some light on possible solutions or 
on where to investigate further. So far I've read a couple of things:

* I could increase the max wait time for the controller service
* I could increase the max total connections for the controller service
* I could use a different driver. I've read suggestions that 
com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver is buggy and the jTDS driver 
(http://jtds.sourceforge.net/index.html ) should be used instead
* I've also read that this error could occur if connections are used but not 
closed. I'm expecting the processor to take care of this, but developers are 
only human too, so.... :)

How could I debug this situation and do you have any thoughts on the above? 
What could the side effects of changing those controller service settings? Will 
a different driver help? Or how could I check whether the processor closes its 
connections?

Kind regards,

Walter
