Some time back I did an experiment using DBCP with Tomcat (JNDI) and MySQL. I was able to get a beautiful connection pool, but the connection to the database seemed to die after an extended period of idleness. Not having the time to deal with it, I went back to my old connection pooling software (DBConnectionBroker) and continued with other things.
Yesterday I decided to revisit DBCP (1.0) and see if I could get it to work. Once again the connection dies after being idle for an extended period. Reading the commons-user archives, I see that this appears to be a fairly common problem. Reading the commons-dev archives it looks like no one is actively working on this package? I'm wondering if anyone has a solution to this problem or should I look elsewhere?
