Dimitry Declercq commented on LOG4J2-407:
-----------------------------------------

Would you retrieve a connection from the ConnectionSource on each writeInternal 
then? Something as such:
{code}
    @Override
    protected void writeInternal(final LogEvent event) {
        Connection connection = this.connectionSource.getConnection();
        PreparedStatement statement = 
connection.prepareStatement(this.sqlStatement);
        ...
        Closer.closeSilent(connection);
{code}
Should work, I don't know the overhead of preparing the statement each time vs 
one-time prepare...

>             Project: Log4j 2
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Appenders
>    Affects Versions: 2.0-beta9
>            Reporter: Michael Kloster
>            Assignee: Nick Williams

> The JDBCAppender holds a single database connection for all its logging. If 
> that database connection is closed, it does not attempt to make a new 
> connection.
> Many connection pools automatically close connections after a certain amount 
> of inactivity. (This can be worked around by properly configuring a pool).
> Database connectivity issues are also common enough that a long running 
> application may experience temporary network issues. When the network comes 
> back online, the logging will not resume.
> I've been meaning to submit a patch for this, but I haven't gotten to it. 
> Since I saw that you are looking to come out of beta soon, I thought I would 
> log this issue in case someone else has time to write the patch before I get 
> to it.
