DIIOP refusing connections at random. Take 2

Didn’t find a solution last time I asked about this, and this issue is getting me ready to ditch DIIOP alltogehter.

Lotus Domino 6.0.5 on Windows 2000.

I’m having some problems with DIIOP on Domino r6.0.5. I have a couple java servlets that

use the notesfactory classes to open a LTPA connection via DIIOP. They

work perfectly, however at random DIIOP will stop responding to the IP

address that the servelets use. This can be the public internet IP, the

internal IP or (since the servlets are running on the same Domino

server they’re talking to) 127.0.0.1. When DIIOP stops responding,

nothing I do short of a full reboot of Domino will bring it back online

(tell DIIOP quit & load DIIOP dont work). DIIOP just stops responding

to that IP. However if I change the IP in the servelets (its hard coded

since the intention was that the servlets would allways talk to

127.0.0.1) it’ll start working again for a while.

So it would seem to be Ip route based, but I’m at a total loss as to

what to do about it.

if (sessionToken == null) {

System.out.println("jDom : " + uName + " \ " + uPass);

Session session = NotesFactory.createSession(“127.0.0.1:63148”, uName,

uPass);

lToken = session.getSessionToken();

session.recycle();

}

As you can see, my code for the connection is not complex. When it

fails I get a null pointer error that resolves to “connection refused”

from the notesfactory object. The prinln statement is to debug that a

username and password exist and are correct, which they allways are

since they are passed to the servlet via the URL and the URL dosn’t

change.

The JAVA errors are not of much help.

Have you tried to set up a connection pool?

Not sure I follow. What is a connection pool in this case and how would one set it up?
