Hi,
I am using hibernate-3.2.6.ga mysql-connector-java-5.1.5 spring-framework-2.5.1 liferay-portal-tomcat-6.0-4.3.6 My portlet application runs fine for most of the time. However, in the morning when I run the Web application and save user input into the database at the first try, it throws exception. I got the following from Tomcat Catalina.out. 2008-05-06 14:41:17,461 WARN [org.springframework.web.portlet.DispatcherPortlet] - Handler execution resulted in exception - forwarding to resolved error view org.springframework.transaction.CannotCreateTransactionException: Could not open Hibernate Session for transaction; nested exception is org.hibernate.TransactionException: JDBC begin failed: at org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.HibernateTransactionManager.doBegin(HibernateTransactionManager.java:521) at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.JIoEndpoint$Worker.run(JIoEndpoint.java:447) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619) Caused by: org.hibernate.TransactionException: JDBC begin failed: at org.hibernate.transaction.JDBCTransaction.begin(JDBCTransaction.java:68) at org.hibernate.impl.SessionImpl.beginTransaction(SessionImpl.java:1326) at org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.HibernateTransactionManager.doBegin(HibernateTransactionManager.java:490) ... 110 more Caused by: com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.CommunicationsException: Communications link failure I have browsed some Web sites. It is said that the problem is stale database connection. Following the advice I have added the following lines in my hibernate configuration file: <prop key="hibernate.c3p0.acquire_increment">3</prop> <prop key="hibernate.c3p0.idle_test_period">30</prop> <prop key="hibernate.c3p0.timeout">60</prop> <prop key="hibernate.c3p0.max_size">15</prop> <prop key="hibernate.c3p0.max_statements">0</prop> <prop key="hibernate.c3p0.min_size">3</prop> But it does not help. Any help would be appreciated! Regards, Robert Chen ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!
