Problem just re-occurred and so I was able to at least get a JSTACK  (I assume 
it was Tomcat since it was the Java using the most memory on the machine).  
Here is the reoccurring message.  I get more hits on but haven't dug through 
all of the Google hits yet (due to multi-tasking) so apologies up front if 
there is a simple answer to this.

Your most likely problem is database connection pool mismanagement:
connections aren't properly released and the pool empties. All threads
are left waiting on available database connections which will never be
replenished.

I'm using the ojdbc6.jar if that is what you are referring to or is there a 
better setting somewhere.

Absolutely.

Don't change anything, yet.
