Yes, I have. This is the only thing that is remotely interesting. In localhost_log.2004-01-06.txt I get this: 2004-01-06 03:38:41 action: null 2004-01-06 03:40:08 action: null 2004-01-06 03:40:12 action: null 2004-01-06 03:40:14 action: null 2004-01-06 03:40:16 action: null 2004-01-06 03:40:18 action: null 2004-01-06 03:40:21 action: null 2004-01-06 03:40:23 action: null (corresponding to the 8 times I try to log in). I don't really know where it is coming from. I would like to know what is generating the above, so I could to in and modify the logging statements to produce a bit more detail! I also have log4j statements in my own code and have been testing this. But I can't generate any error or anything beyond the normal output, 8 times. What is interesting is that it always fails on the 9th try. I don't think it is a matter of seconds either. I have tested over a longer period (10 minutes), but it still gives me 8 requests before it hangs. And Geeta Ramani - thanks. I will take another look at the jdbc stuff!
