    Connection pool socket timeouts - appropriate recovery

    ousie

      Hi,

      We have a very unique issue at the moment with the following setup:
      1. JBoss 4.0.3 SP1
      2. Installed on Linux - Gentoo
      3. MSSQL 2005 database

      About once a day, at random times, a connection will just die to the database. By "just die" I mean a JBoss thread waits forever on:

      java.net.SocketInputStream.socketRead0(Native Method)
      java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:129)
      java.io.DataInputStream.readFully(DataInputStream.java:178)
      java.io.DataInputStream.readFully(DataInputStream.java:152)
      net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.SharedSocket.readPacket(SharedSocket.java:826)
      


      We discovered that the query was not even executed on the database, so query-timeout settings have no effect, it literally waits forever and we have to restart JBoss to fix this problem.

      Is there a way to set the following socket timeouts on the connections in the connection pool:
      1. timeout to wait for the connection to be established
      2. timeout to wait for data to be returned on the socket

      Thanks,
      Gerrit
