Need help for IBatis?

Question

Hi all,

I am using IBatis for my applicaiton. I am using IBatis 1.6.1 version.I thought it can handle all operations related to DB connections. But I am having little bit concern about this now. Sometimes I am getting the following error details to my log file,

Message Unable to open connection to "MySQL, MySQL provider 5.0.8.1". Source IBatisNet.DataMapper Stack at IBatisNet.DataMapper.SqlMapSession.OpenConnection(String connectionString) at IBatisNet.DataMapper.SqlMapSession.OpenConnection() at IBatisNet.DataMapper.Commands.DbCommandDecorator.System.Data.IDbCommand.ExecuteReader() at IBatisNet.DataMapper.MappedStatements.MappedStatement.RunQueryForObject(RequestScope request, ISqlMapSession session, Object parameterObject, Object resultObject) at IBatisNet.DataMapper.MappedStatements.MappedStatement.ExecuteQueryForObject(ISqlMapSession session, Object parameterObject, Object resultObject) at IBatisNet.DataMapper.MappedStatements.MappedStatement.ExecuteQueryForObject(ISqlMapSession session, Object parameterObject) at IBatisNet.DataMapper.SqlMapper.QueryForObject(String statementName, Object parameterObject) at Sunya.VideoStreaming.Persistence.SchoolRepository.GetSchoolDetailsByUrl(String SchoolUrl) in D:\SVN\Sprint104\Persistence\SchoolRepository.cs:line 192 at EduVisionBasePage.GetSchoolUrl(School& _school) at ASP.global_asax.Application_BeginRequest(Object sender, EventArgs e) at System.Web.HttpApplication.SyncEventExecutionStep.System.Web.HttpApplication.IExecutionStep.Execute() at System.Web.HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean& completedSynchronously) Message Too many connections Source MySql.Data Stack at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlStream.OpenPacket() at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.NativeDriver.Authenticate411() at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.NativeDriver.Authenticate() at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.NativeDriver.Open() at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlPool.GetPooledConnection() at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlPool.GetConnection() at MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlConnection.Open() at IBatisNet.DataMapper.SqlMapSession.OpenConnection(String connectionString)

Does someone has some idea about the error?

iBATIS has been around for quite a while (2001), and I have my doubts that there's a major bug in the MySQL provider. You mentioned that the error occurs "sometimes" - if it's intermittent, perhaps the problem lies elsewhere. "Unable to open connection" is likely to mean just that. Network errors, database outages, too many unreleased connections, authentication issues, etc. might all cause this error.
