>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/POOL-131
>             Project: Commons Pool
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>    Affects Versions: 1.4
>         Environment: Spring Framework JTA transaction Manager + jBossTS + DBCP
>            Reporter: Mauro Molinari
>             Fix For: 2.0
>
>
> In our environment it happens the following. Suppose our code has a bug and 
> does not release a connection previously obtained from DBCP. 
> Suppose a JTA transaction is in progress when this happens.
> When trying to commit this transaction, Spring has a guard that realizes that 
> the owner of that transaction is in some way "dead", so it tries to close the 
> connection before committing (I think this is a problem, however, let's go 
> on). Closing the connection makes DBCP/Pool call returnObject on the 
> GenericObjectPool, then addObjectToPool and, at last, passivateObject. As the 
> connection is neither in auto-commit mode nor read-only, passivateObject 
> issues a rollback on the connection but then jBossTS throws a SQLException 
> saying that it is not allowed to issue a rollback on an underlying connection 
> while a higher level JTA transaction is in progress. This exception is caught 
> by returnObject and it is completely lost, because returnObject does not log 
> it, nor it forwards it upward.
> The final result is that:
> - the connection is not given back to the Pool, because of the exception
> - however, the physical underlying connection to the DBMS remains open
> => we have a connection leak, without any proof of it (no exceptions are 
> logged in any way)
> To get to these results I had to carefully debug my code. It would have been 
> very easier if Pool logged exceptions thrown during passivation.
