Dear All
I work on a small application with database support. For development I use the MySQL database which is just doing fine. During testing I experienced a, in my opinion, strange bug. I have the following source code: >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Connection conn = p_GetConnectionFromPool(); try { // Try to lock the database connection to have exclusive access for table locks synchronized (conn) { Statement stmt = null; ResultSet rSet = null; try { // Create statement from connection stmt = conn.createStatement(); // First, read the configured timeout time rSet = stmt.executeQuery("select v from config where k='time'"); rSet.next(); String ttl = rSet.getString("v"); rSet.close(); rSet = null; rSet = stmt.executeQuery("show databases"); while (rSet.next()) { // Do something in here } rSet.close(); } catch (SQLException Ex) { // Notify about exception } finally { // Do some cleanup work if (rSet != null) { try { rSet.close(); } catch (SQLException Ignore) {} rSet = null; } if (stmt != null) { try { stmt.close(); } catch (SQLException Ignore) {} stmt = null; } } } } finally { // Place the connection back in the connection pool if (conn != null) { p_Connections.push(conn); } } <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Now the problem I encounter: The first query ("select v from config where k='time'") is executed without any problems. I can read the returned value and save in 'ttl'. Then, I close this result set and leave it to the garbage collector. Next, I want to use the same variable to take the result set of another query ("show databases") which is executed as well. But then, when I execute "while (rSet.next())" I get the following exception: >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> java.sql.SQLException: Operation not allowed after ResultSet closed at com.mysql.jdbc.ResultSet.checkClosed(ResultSet.java:4579) at com.mysql.jdbc.ResultSet.next(ResultSet.java:2423) at net.sos.web.services.mapping.CMySQLMappingService$1.run(CMySQLMappingService .java:323) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< "while (rSet.next())" is on line 323 in an anonymous class implementation of java.lang.Runnable, but I think this is not the reason for the exception. I use Connection/J in version 3.1.1alpha and MySQL 5.0.0alpha (I have to because of some features unique to MySQL 5). The JDK I use is 1.4.2_02 I hope someone can help me since I have really no clue why this is happening. Temporarily I don't close the result set but this would result in a lot of memory consumption in my system.
