I bet I'm missing  something really basic, but can anyone help? We're using spring on top  of jboss. Here is what I have in my applicationContext.xml: <bean id="dataSource" class="org.springframework.jndi.JndiObjectFactoryB  ean"> <property name="jndiName"><value>java:/MSSQLDS</value></property> </bean> <bean id="transactionManager" class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DataSou  rceTransactionManager"> <property name="dataSource"><ref local="dataSource"/></property> </bean> And in jtds-ds.xml we have: <datasources> <local-tx-datasource> <jndi-name>MSSQLDS</jndi-name> <connection-url>jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://localhost/dbname;namedPipe=true;tds=8.0;lastupdatecount=true   ;sendStringParametersAsUnicode=false</connection-url> <driver-class>net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver</driver-class> <user-name>user</user-name> <password>pass</password> <check-valid-connection-sql>SELECT 1</check-valid-connection-sql>      <background-validation-minutes>5</background-validation-minutes> </local-tx-datasource> </datasources> But if we restart the DB, we then get forever of: org.jboss.util.NestedSQLException: Unable to get managed connection for MSSQLDS Can anyone help with an example of how to configure an auto re-connect?
