That may be the exception you've seen, but I'm pretty sure Oracle also
has an exception for too many connections that says something about
there being too many connections.

Ummm.  what do you mean by "locks"???  The db stops working completely,
even for the clients you already have connected?  Won't accept new
connections but keeps processing the old ones?

We need more quoting of the error messages you're getting.  What we've
got now doesn't help a lot.

You should get an error message saying something about too many
connections open
