Ralph - Thanks for pointing that out, I am new to Tomcat and servlets, and have heard about connection pooling but never used it, obviously I should.... I am going to make those changes, also going to try the changes to my try block.....
thanks again, I appreciate the advice of people who have experienced these problems before, and taking the time to reply to other peoples problems!!!

This way you share one connection between two concurent requests to the same servlet. It's better to use a connection pool and get the connection for every request. - All your instance variables are dangerous, because they are shared between two concurrent requests to the same servlet. - Maybe you should use Throwable instead of Exception try { } catch {Throwable ex} } This way you will have also control about the Errors that might occur. > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: Geoff Peters [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Gesendet: Dienstag, 11.
