Thanks for your reply, I have read through that document and the one on the mysql website, and discovered these other parameters, so I added this as well. It didnt make any difference. The mysqladmin program still reports the connections going untouched for hours.

     validationQuery="select 1"  testWhileIdle="true"
     timeBetweenEvictionRunsMillis="60000"
     minEvictableIdleTimeMillis="60000"

As a side note, drop the autoReconnect=true from your database url. It's not recommended and actually does not prevent SQLExceptions on
connections that go stale.  It just restores the connection for the next
request after the exception.  The MySQL website has further information
regarding what autoReconnect actually does.  One of these days, the
tomcat docs should be updated to remove that.
I will have to read the documents to find out why having the connection automatically reconnected if there was a problem is bad thing, it is not clear from first reading.

Best Regards,
Jacob
