My Java application using Hibernate and hosted by Tomcat 6.0 receives the following exception after a long period of inactivity when trying to access the database:

com.mysql.jdbc.CommunicationsException: Communications link failure due to underlying exception: 

** BEGIN NESTED EXCEPTION **

MySQL will close idle connections after 8 hours by default ( wait_timeout). This is a "known issue" and you will find many links to it on the Internet, such as this one . So either:

  • configure tomcat to check connections by borrowing using the validationQuerydata source configuration:

    <parameter>
      <name>validationQuery</name>
      <value>select 1</value>
    </parameter>
    
  • MySQL wait_timeout my.cnf/my.ini SQL- SET GLOBAL wait_timeout=86400 .

, . , , MySQL.
