Re: referential integrity violation makes connection - Mailing list pgsql-jdbc

Hello,

The solution is that after any exception, you should close that connection
permanently and remove it from the pool. PostgreSQL JDBC does not seem to
work well after any error with a connection.

I would also recommend you stop using Poolman, which is end of life. I
would recommend Protomatter instead, which I have working perfectly, and it
is a much more lightweight solution as well.

In fact, the author added the necessary methods to allow you to explicitly
remove a connection from a pool permanently in this situation per my request.

Cheers,

Doug
