The MySQL server closes idle connections after a standard timeout period. When this happens, your JDBC driver attempts to write to a socket that has been closed, thus you get an exception. You can either change the timeout on the MySQL server or you can have a thread that wakes up every half hour or so and uses all of your connections in your pool that are getting stale.
