Thread: Re: error - NOTICE: current transaction...MORE DETAIL...
I also built a linked list of available connections today and my problem has completly gone away. I have an intensly threaded app and it has been running now for several hours doing 1000's of inserts without the problem I was having before. I don't know how dave implemented his list but I have an inner class with a connection and a boolean marking whether it is in use. each insert gets a connection that is not in use from the linked list and marks it in use until it is finished. I also built in the ability for the list to grow and shrink dynamically based on need. So if all connections are in use I will create more and after a specified period of time I delete the ones that haven't been used. This seems to be working quite nicely now. t.r. -----Original Message----- From: Dave Cramer [mailto:Dave@micro-automation.net] Sent: Thursday, September 06, 2001 6:05 PM To: cmarkiew@commnav.com; Missner, T.

Chris, I'm curious; why are you using a hashtable for available connections, and how do you use it? I have been using a connection pool that uses a linked list, in LIFO mode to store available connections. I can donate the pool code if need be, it has been running for over a year with no problems.

Chris, I had the same problem on the insert side and thought it went away but it is back and I am convinced it is related to more than one thread using the same connection at the same time. What I have done as a work around in the interim ( until I write my own connection manager class ) is catch the exception and try the insert again with another connection. If it still fails I delete the connections I have and create new ones and the insert ALWAYS works after that. So it appears to me that something is happening to my connection object that is causing it to get corrupted to some extent. Once a connection throws this exception it seems much more likely to do so again which is why I am deleting connections and creating new ones if I have 2 failures back to back. This isn't the answer you are looking for but I hoped it might help you think of other ways to troubleshoot your problem. Since I put this work around in I have been able to run a very high rate and haven't lost any data on the insert side. My guess is that these Fastpath transactions are very slow compared to non fastpath transactions and it is easy to use a connection that hasn't finished what it is doing. I even used a synchronized method to hopefully block on the connection but this didn't fix the problem either. Must be some threading going on in the connection class. I haven't had the time to go through the code but I will at some point.

AFAIR, I simply wrap the sql connection for ease of handling, and then put available connections in the linked list. When I want one I remove it from the linked list, and put it into a hashtable, keyed by the toString method on the connection. When it is returned, I remove it from the hash table and put it back into the linked list Since it's a linked list, it can grow and shrink at will.

we use a hashtable with connections as keys and timestamps as values...we do that so that we can clean up connections that haven't been used in a while...i know that some DBs invalidate their connections after a certain amount of time, so we have a process that periodically walks through the timestamps and cleans as necessary... anyway, this could be handled just as easily with a linked list of wrapped connections. can either of you suggest why the hashtable approach might be causing a problem? or is it probably elsewhere in my code? dave, if you have no trouble with donating your code, i would be more than happy to take a look at it...i'd really appreciate that. thanks for your help. chris -----Original Message----- From: pgsql-jdbc-owner@postgresql.org [mailto:pgsql-jdbc-owner@postgresql.org]On Behalf Of Dave Cramer Sent: Thursday, September 06, 2001 9:10 PM To: pgsql-jdbc@postgresql.org Subject: Re: [JDBC] error - NOTICE: current transaction...MORE DETAIL...

What I have is a connection pool. I initially grab 2 connections, one primary one secondary. If the insert fails on the primary connection I try the secondary, if it fails I simply delete the 2 I have and grab 2 more from the connection pool. After creating the new ones I have never seen it fail the first few times which is what leads me to believe that something in the connection itself is getting corrupted over time. Note that each connection is a separate process in the unix environment. I believe it is this process that is getting corrupted note necessarily the java connection wrapper.

Chris, I had the same problem on the insert side and thought it went away but it is back and I am convinced it is related to more than one thread using the same connection at the same time. What I have done as a work around in the interim ( until I write my own connection manager class ) is catch the exception and try the insert again with another connection. If it still fails I delete the connections I have and create new ones and the insert ALWAYS works after that. So it appears to me that something is happening to my connection object that is causing it to get corrupted to some extent. Once a connection throws this exception it seems much more likely to do so again which is why I am deleting connections and creating new ones if I have 2 failures back to back. This isn't the answer you are looking for but I hoped it might help you think of other ways to troubleshoot your problem. Since I put this work around in I have been able to run a very high rate and haven't lost any data on the insert side. My guess is that these Fastpath transactions are very slow compared to non fastpath transactions and it is easy to use a connection that hasn't finished what it is doing. I even used a synchronized method to hopefully block on the connection but this didn't fix the problem either. Must be some threading going on in the connection class. I haven't had the time to go through the code but I will at some point.

can i get other information from logs (i think i can raise the log level to 3 if it would help). i can send pieces of code, but our data layer is pretty abstracted, so i don't know how much that would help. finally, an apology. i started a thread about this issue a few weeks ago but got pulled onto some other stuff. i am determined to follow this until i fix it this time. i appreciate your help. chris ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ?
