Bryan: thank you for your response.

I do see the thread you mention:

        Thread Group [derby.daemons]{10}(Daemon)
            Thread [derby.antiGC]{1}(Daemon)(WAITING)
            Thread [derby.rawStoreDaemon]{5}(Daemon)(TIMED_WAITING)
            Thread [derby.NetworkServerStarter]{5}(Daemon)(WAITING)
            Thread [NetworkServerThread_2]{5}(Daemon)(RUNNABLE)
            Thread [DRDAConnThread_3]{5}(Daemon)(WAITING)

However the behavior is still the same - if any other thread stops (for 
instance in debugger), NetworkServerControl becomes unresponsive.
For instance, if I connect to it from the "outside" with another db app 
(Aqua Data Studio, for instance), then connection to it breaks or the db 
app can't access it.
But as soon as I let the thread run in that debugger, the connection 
becomes alive and everything seems to work.

Has anyone else seen this kind of behavior?
Or perhaps, someone can share a piece of code (best practice) of how to 
instantiate and run the NetworkServerControl, so that it's not 
experiencing
such hang-ups.

Much appreciated,

Pavel.

In addition to your own DerbyServer thread, which I don't think
actually *needs* to still be running, there should be a separate
thread which is started by the Derby network server code itself,
which has the job of accepting connections and delivering them
to other threads to be processed.

In my running network server, for example, when I look at the
threads that are active, I see:

"NetworkServerThread_2" prio=6 tid=0x03044c80 nid=0x27c runnable 
[0x033cf000..0x033cfae8]
         at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketAccept(Native Method)
         at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.accept(PlainSocketImpl.java:384)
         - locked <0x22a857d8> (a java.net.SocksSocketImpl)
         at java.net.ServerSocket.implAccept(ServerSocket.java:450)
         at java.net.ServerSocket.accept(ServerSocket.java:421)
         at org.apache.derby.impl.drda.ClientThread$1.run(Unknown Source)
         at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)
         at org.apache.derby.impl.drda.ClientThread.run(Unknown Source)

Do you see a thread like that?

When your server becomes stuck/wedged/unresponsive, why don't you try 
this:
  - collect a thread dump of the entire JVM
  - look through the threads for any which mention "org.apache.derby" in 
their stacks
  - edit out all the other threads from your thread dump

Then post a message with a cut-and-paste of just the derby-related threads
in your wedged server, and maybe it will be more clear to somebody else
what the problem is.

thanks,

bryan
