THIS looks MUCH better. Initializing the connections and statements to null outside, then going in to do the conns and subsequently closing with the try/catch/finally block like you have.
What did the stack trace show? I am still on the dinosaur 4 version, getting ready to very soon upgrade to TC 6. My Data Source reference in the web.xml looks like this <Resource name="jdbc/myoracle" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"/> Yours, being on TC6, is likely different, and I think might have to be established in the META-INF file. I only have mine one place in the WEB-INF folder. Is the AardvarkResource a previously designated DB datasource class, written by the previous developer? -----Original Message----- From: Josh Gooding [mailto:josh.good...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, October 30, 2009 3:32 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: ConnectionPool question Barry I changed the code to this: public static void closeResources(ResultSet rs) throws AardvarkResourceException { Statement s = null; Connection c = null; try { s = rs.getStatement(); if (s != null) { c = s.getConnection(); } rs.close(); } catch (SQLException e) { throw new AardvarkResourceException("Error closing resources associated with ResultSet", e); } finally { if(null != rs) try { rs.close(); } catch (SQLException sqle) { sqle.printStackTrace(); } if(null != s) try { s.close(); } catch (SQLException sqle) { sqle.printStackTrace(); } if(null != c) try { c.close(); } catch (SQLException sqle) { sqle.printStackTrace(); } } } No luck using the DataSoruceConnectionFactory though.
