Manfred Baedke edited comment on OAK-8890 at 2/5/20 5:59 PM: ------------------------------------------------------------- It wouldn't be a good idea to expose every available config option (see https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-pool/api-2.8.0/index.html), since these are implementation details of apache.commons.pool2. Currently exactly one of these options is configurable, namely the pool size. To fix the issue at hand, we'd need a background job evicting idle connections after a configurable timeout interval. The default implementation (https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-pool/api-2.8.0/org/apache/commons/pool2/impl/DefaultEvictionPolicy.html) has such an option, which is disabled by default. I'd go for the simplest solution and offer two additional config options allowing to set the time between two eviction runs and the minimum idle time after which a connection shall be evicted. A patch will follow tomorrow. was (Author: baedke): It wouldn't be a good idea to expose every available config option (see https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-pool/api-2.8.0/index.html), since these are implementation details of apache.commons.pool2.

When this happens, the connection pool used by > the LdapPrincipalProvider will still consider these connections healthy. > Eventually such a connection will be used for an actual LDAP BIND/SEARCH, > which will simply timeout. > The connection pool is an instance of > org.apache.commons.pool.impl.GenericObjectPool, which has configuration > options to deal with the scenario (namely running an eviction task which will > properly close idle connections after a timeout which is shorter than the > timeout interval used by the firewall) . > The creation of the connection pool used is hard coded and most of the > configuration options are not available. > I propose to change that. I'll supply a patch soon. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
