Re: Database connection causes slow startup

2011-11-17 Thread Ben Gladstone
Thanks for your help. I solved the problem. It turns out the problem was in
that fastConnectionFailover option. I disabled that, and it now starts up
in 46 seconds.

 Note that you are not using Tomcat's connection pooling: you are using
 Oracle's connection pooling because you specified the factory
 attribute and told Oracle to create DataSource objects for you.

 Try setting type=javax.sql.DataSource and removing the factory
 attribute to use Tomcat's connection pool (which is commons-dbcp).

 If Tomcat takes 7 minutes to start up, that sounds like plenty of time
 to take a thread dump to see what's going on.

But now they won't fail-over fast! ;)

I don't believe that you can attach files to the list.  You'll need to
copy and paste the information in your email.

 Now, it takes around 7 minutes to start.

This seems long, but it really depends on how many connections you've
configured the pool to initially make and how long it takes to make each
connection.  Where are you defining your DataSources and what do the
definitions look like?

If I'm not mistaken, the data sources are defined in server.xml.

Let's try this again. Here's server.xml:

I see an initial limit of 10 for the first DataSource and 3 for the
second DataSource.  That seems like it should happen pretty quick.  

A couple thoughts...

1.) Do you have any applications deployed to the server?  If so, perhaps
it is an application which is causing the startup to take so long.  Have
you tried starting Tomcat without any applications deployed?  If so, how
long does it take to startup?

2.) Try making a test connection to your database outside of Tomcat from
the same machine.  Does the connection take a long time to setup?

Dan
