AutoReconnect problem

[Pål Arne Hoff]

I have a autoReconnect problem with Connector/J 3.0.4 (The problem seems to be 
in 3.0.2 and 3.0.3 too, but I seem to remember not having the problem with 3.0.1).

I'm running MySQL Max 3.23.54a in Linux, using JBoss 2.4.10 and JRockit 7.0 JVM 
(I also tested with Sun's JVM 1.4.1_01 and JRockit 8.0b).

I connect to MySQL through JBoss using this URL: 
jdbc:mysql://localhost/bms_company?autoReconnect=true. Then every morning when 
the connection hasn't been used over night, I get a NullPointerException when I 
try to connect through our application. The same thing happens if I restart 
MySQL without restarting JBoss. If I change to mm.mysql-2.0.14, everything works 
just fine.

Is this a bug in the new driver?

Cheers,
Pål Arne Hoff
