Tomcat + JNDI + Oracle Database restart - No more data to read from socket

[Jogesh Malapaka]

We are facing problem "No more data to read from socket", every time database gets restarted. We are using connection pooling of Tomcat end and getting the connection into static variable, code snippet below. For every operation we are getting connection and closing it after use. Is there any way to counter this or do we need to restert app server every time db is restarted???

Class level variable
private static Connection connectionOracle=null;

Logic to get connection:
if ((connectionOracle == null) || (connectionOracle.isClosed())){
/* For Apache Tomcat connection start*/
Context initContext = new InitialContext();
Context envContext = (Context)initContext.lookup( "java:/comp/env" );
DataSource ds = (DataSource)envContext.lookup( "jdbc/Docs2GoDB" );
connectionOracle =ds.getConnection();
}


Context.xml:
<Resource auth="Container" driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver" maxActive="20" maxIdle="10" maxWait="-1" name="jdbc/Docs2GoDB" password="aaaa" type="javax.sql.DataSource" url="ul" username="asd"/>

Did you ever find a solution other than restarting the app server?
