Regarding testOnBorrow, the method signature is below:

BasicDataSource.setTestOnBorrow( boolean )

Note this is not an arbitrary string, but specifically true or false. Your config would most likely throw an exception. The validation query must be set via validationQuery. I would strongly recommend you read the javadocs in the DBCP project -- http://commons.apache.org/dbcp.

Hi,
I am currently using dbcp 1.2.1 with common pool 1.3. Currently i have
following settings in server.xml:
maxActive = 50
maxIdle = 30
factory=org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory
maxWait=10000
timeBetweenEvictionRunsMillis=900000
numTestsPerEvictionRun=50
minEvictableIdleTimeMillis=1800000
testWhileIdle=true
testOnBorrow = 'select 1 from dual'

Note that I have NOT set the validationQuery. And testOnBorrow's value has
NON boolean value. If this the case, how does eviction logic work? During
each eviction run, since testWhileIdle is set to true and validationQuery is
not set, will it still validate each connection?
Issue is, morning when i checked netstat, i saw 30 connections established
to oracle but in the afternoon it became 25. How is it possible? With the
above configuration, It can go below 30 only when the connection is found to
be invalid in eviction run. Is there any other possibility? (note that from
oracle, nobody went and killed the session so, this path is ruledout).
But since i don't have validationQuery how does eviction logic validates the
connection object and takes out the connection from pool?
Can some one throw the light please?

Thanks,
Bhaskar
