Hi there,
I've run into a strange problem with Tomcat (4.1.12; JDK 1.4.1_01; Linux
2.4.19). My webappliaction connects to a postgres database (7.3) via
javax.sql.DataSource (I am using the jdbc driver coming with 7.3).
From time to time out of the blue the DataSource seems to deliver broken
connections.

Sometimes I find an error in the catalina and in the postgres log indicating
that *one* statement got garbled (SQL syntax error). It looks like this:
ERROR: parser: unterminated quoted string at or near "'Ort: xxxxxxxxxxxx" at
character 52
FATAL: Socket command type ' unknown
From then on, nothing reaches postgres any more.
I am quite confident that the servlet itself is thread safe, and the statement
being sent is (afaict) correct (everything nicely escaped and such). Moreover
such an error should not break all connections in the pool, should it?
Has anyone observed similar behaviour? What can I do to narrow down the bug
in order to blame the right one? :-)
With kind regards / mit freundlichem Gruß
