WebLogic 8.1 A JDBC pool connection leak was detected

[Kunal Prakash Gandhi]

I am getting the following Error in the Weblogic 8.1 Server log :-

A JDBC pool connection leak was detected. A connection leak occurs when a connection obtained from the pool was not closed explicitly by calling close() and then was disposed by the garbage collector and returned to the connection pool. The following stack trace at create shows where the leaked connection was created. [Null exception passed, creating stack trace for offending caller

Any Idea about the Reason for this Error. ?

Check that the method which obtained the connection also ensured the return to the pool by closing the connection in the finally clause.
