Question

Prevent Multiple MySql Connection

Asked by: Sachin_Ajmani

hi Experts,

I m working on a project in which clients inserting their data in database. i m using MySql.
all going well if clients regularly insert their data in database.  but when client want to insert their old data then out of memory error comes. I goggled and get that this error coming because client want to insert 1000 or more rows continuously and every time they insert their row then new connection created. All working is in thread. So if only 3 Client comes and want to insert their data approx 4000 rows or more depends some conditions then 4000 new connection created between client and mysql.. and then out of memory error comes..  
 how can i remove this problem and  suggest me how can i create only one connection and use it for all clients. or you can say i want to create only one connection and use it in my whole project where data need to insert or select or delete or update without creating new connection.

Please mention/clarify,
1) If this is a web-application, Java-Client applet application or otherwise.
2) If you are using any connection pooling or any other mechanism to re-use the existing connection.

I suggest,
1) Create a connection (or a pool of connection) at the startup of the application, cache it and use these connection objects as and when required. A connection object should be thread-safe. Once a commit is done, connection should go back to the connection pool.
2) Insert and Delete code should be thread-safe (synchronized if possible), to avoid concurrency issues.

Let me know if this helped

Hi there,

seems you're issuing one request per insert.
Can you adjust the code on the client to consolidate the inserted data and
insert multible rows at a time like

insert into TABLE (`field1`,`field2`,`field3`,`field4`)
VALUES
('data-1-1','data-1-2','data-1-2','data-1-3'),
('data-2-1','data-2-2','data-2-2','data-2-3'),
...
('data-n-1','data-n-2','data-n-2','data-n-3');


The maximum rows you can insert is only limited by the max query size.

hi gurvinder372 and DocSeltsam

for  gurvinder372 :--   i m working on Web-Application and i m not using connection pooling and any type of other mechanism..

for DocSeltsam :--- no, its not possible to add all rows in same time .


Actually i make a class like dbConnection with the help of this i m getting my connection in all other classes which need it...

Hi there,

if you can't consolidate the inserts, I'd suggest you'll have a look at

Sachin_Ajmani:

Can you show the Java code in which you are getting the dbConnection.  Most likely you are getting a connection before each insert in the code.  What you will want is open one connection (at least per client if not as you said persisted for application) and then iterate inserts then close the connection.  If using one, you will want some sort of synchronization or way to lock the connection when busy for another client.

When I need this scenario, I typically change the signature of the class that gets called to take in a dbConnection instead of creating its own; therefore, I can open a connection before the pertinent code and pass and already opened connection around ensuring a new one is not created on each call to my action methods.

if i want to insert data then i directly used

stmt.executeUpdate("insert data to xyz");

and if i want to get data then i used

stmt = conn.createStatement();
rs = stmt.executeQuery("select data from xyz");

Looks like you are calling init or geoinit method every time for doing a database operation. Because of this a new connection is being created.

You can try one of these 2 approaches

1)Instead of calling this method every time for a db operation, you can initialize a data-structure in the beginning of the application to store the pool of the connection objects and store it in the cache.
Every time a new db operation is requested, a Connection Object from the connection pool (a data-structure), will be fetch and used. At the end of the transaction the commit will be done and Connection object will be returned to the connection pool.
Visit http://commons.apache.org/dbcp/ for more info on Connection Pooling.

2) You can synchronize the methods of the class that access the db. This way only one user/thread will be able to access those methods and only one object will be created.

I would recommend first option, as it a more elegant and widely used approach.

Did you obfuscate the code a bit to post?  Just asking to see if in the live code, the jdbc connection strings are really the same for the two init() methods.  Probably nothing, but just curious looking.


Since myConnection is an instance variable, a new one will be created each time you call constructor and init().  You may want to try with Singleton instance as you said, so that you get one connection.

Might be a good ref. : http:/A_322.html

hi mwvisa1

no, i m not obfuscate my code...

it was my typing mistake and they are both different method one is init() and 2nd is geoinit()  .

they both are using to connect different schema......
e.g one is using to connect db and 2nd is db1

thanks
