I have a servlet which I am trying to run under Tomcat 5.5.9 which has a background thread in it. This thread uses JDBC, and in particular the Postgresql JDBC driver. This driver uses PhantomReferences in order to tidy up the underlying C objects.
But when it comes to use the PhantomReference it gets:- at org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(WebappClassLoader.java:1221) at org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(WebappClassLoader.java:1181) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal(ClassLoader.java:319) at org.postgresql.core.v3.QueryExecutorImpl.registerParsedQuery(QueryExecutorImpl.java:1092) at org.postgresql.core.v3.QueryExecutorImpl.processResults(QueryExecutorImpl.java:1177) at org.postgresql.core.v3.QueryExecutorImpl.execute(QueryExecutorImpl.java:188) at org.postgresql.jdbc2.AbstractJdbc2Statement.execute(AbstractJdbc2Statement.java:430) at org.postgresql.jdbc2.AbstractJdbc2Statement.executeWithFlags(AbstractJdbc2Statement.java:346) at org.postgresql.jdbc2.AbstractJdbc2Statement.executeQuery(AbstractJdbc2Statement.java:250) The line in registerParsedQuery that is failing is:- PhantomReference cleanupRef = new PhantomReference(query, parsedQueryCleanupQueue); This should work on any JDK since Java 1.2. I am running this with the Sun 1.5 SDK. Is this a sandbox problem? If so what do I need to set in order to allow this to work? Anyone got any idea why this might be failing?
