I dont know why someone hasnt said something before now... make me want to pay some maintains to these jokes,,,, the problem appears to have something to do with the number of connections jboss is handling and the clean up of an unused connection failing. after i restarted the Jboss deplorer i have had trouble reproducing the error. but i intend to do more testing. i can't have apps in the field failing every time jboss has a nervous twitch. boy i tell you this place in a mountain of information.. just come here to get all your problem taken care of.
