I think you are correct. We manage our Oracle connections ourselves using classes12 and a ConnectionPool. I have no need to restart tomcat after an Oracle "bounce". I do restart my Tomcats much more often than Oracle - every day. It has been almost a year since we restarted Oracle.

It could be that Hibernate is your issue. I know that Tomcat can manage connections perhaps there is something in that configuration that will help.

Good luck.

Hi- I'm an Oracle DBA, but since I work in a small
company, I've been tasked with restarting our Tomcat
servers everytime I have to shut down or restart our
database.

(If I shutdown the Oracle database and then don't do a
Tomcat restart when the database comes back up, we get
HTTP 500 errors).

To me, this seems silly though- Tomcat should be able
to be aware that no database connection is available,
but when one *does* become available, it should just
pick it up, instead of requiring a restart.

Does anyone here know how to configure this?

Also- FYI, we are using Hibernate.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 Thanks!
