I'm not sure how my connection could be null at the point I try to close it. Following is one of the methods where I'm having this problem. If I uncomment the conn.close() in the try block, I get the exception I sent earlier. public static Vector getFileTypeIdList() { Vector results = new Vector(); Connection conn = null; try { conn = Database.getConnection(); CallableStatement stmt = conn.prepareCall(GET_FILE_TYPE_ID_LIST); stmt.registerOutParameter(1, OracleTypes.CURSOR); stmt.execute(); ResultSet rs = (ResultSet)stmt.getObject(1); while(rs.next()) { results.add(rs.getString(FieldMappingsFileType.FILE_TYPE_ID)); } //conn.close(); //conn = null; } catch (SQLException sqle) { cat.error("getFileTypeIdList: " + sqle.getMessage()); try { if(!conn.isClosed()) { //conn.close(); //conn = null; } } catch(SQLException sqle1) { cat.fatal("getFileTypeIdList: " + sqle1.getMessage()); } } if(results.size() > 0) { return results; } else { return null; } }

But this is not the problem you have. In your case conn is already null. So you should have something like this: try { if (resultSet!=null) resultSet.close(); if (statement!=null) statement.close(); if (connection!=null) connection.close(); } catch (SQLException sqle) { } Hope that helps :) Nathan Anderson -----Original Message----- From: MacKellar, Kimberly [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, December 18, 2001 2:16 PM To: Struts-User (E-mail) Subject: Poolman question I know this is off subject but I can't find a poolman mailing list and I know there are people on this list using Poolman... I'm running struts-1.0 on a windowNT machine with tomcat-3.2.3. I have multiple webapps running under the same server. I just set up a new webapp that uses poolman. The problem is that when I try to access the datasource I've configured in the new webapp, poolman appears to be looking in other webapps' WEB-INF/classes directory for the poolman.xml file and isn't finding the data source for the new webapp. Has anyone else seen this or know how to fix it? Also when I try to call conn.close() (conn is of type Connection) I get the following exception: java.lang.NullPointerException at java.util.Hashtable.containsKey(Hashtable.java:299) at com.codestudio.util.JDBCPool.returnPooledStatement(Unknown Source) at com.codestudio.sql.PoolManPreparedStatement.close(Unknown Source) at com.codestudio.util.JDBCPool.closeStatement(Unknown Source) at com.codestudio.sql.PoolManConnection.clean(Unknown Source) at com.codestudio.util.JDBCPool.returnConnection(Unknown Source) at com.codestudio.util.JDBCPool.connectionClosed(Unknown Source) at com.codestudio.sql.PoolManConnection.sendCloseEvent(Unknown Source) at com.codestudio.sql.PoolManConnectionHandle.close(Unknown Source) at com.tfp.admintool.database.FileTypeDatabase.getFieldList(FileTypeDatabase.ja va:256) at com.tfp.admintool.fileType.EditTagListAction.performAction(EditTagListAction .java:56) at com.tfp.admintool.ValidatedAction.perform(ValidatedAction.java:40) at org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.processActionPerform(ActionServlet.ja va:1786) at org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.process(ActionServlet.java:1585) at org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.doPost(ActionServlet.java:509) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:760) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:853) at org.apache.tomcat.core.ServletWrapper.doService(ServletWrapper.java:405) at org.apache.tomcat.core.Handler.service(Handler.java:287) at org.apache.tomcat.core.ServletWrapper.service(ServletWrapper.java:372) at org.apache.tomcat.core.ContextManager.internalService(ContextManager.java:81 2) at org.apache.tomcat.core.ContextManager.service(ContextManager.java:758) at org.apache.tomcat.service.http.HttpConnectionHandler.processConnection(HttpC onnectionHandler.java:213) at org.apache.tomcat.service.TcpWorkerThread.runIt(PoolTcpEndpoint.java:416) at org.apache.tomcat.util.ThreadPool$ControlRunnable.run(ThreadPool.java:501) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:484) Kimberly MacKellar Thomson Financial Publishing [EMAIL PROTECTED] (847) 933-8005 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
