Pentaho B.I Server 每天都得重启一次的问题

Are you experiencing the same problem as the title ? are you working with a MySQL DB server. Then the cause for this problem is. The MySQL driver remove it’s connection from the connection pool due to inactivity after few hours if the server is not processing anything though the db connection.

There is a solution introduced in the Pentaho forum for this, you can find the thread with the following link.

But above forum post is based on the JBoss server. My intention with this post is to implement the same on the tomcat server since the file structure is a bit different. Ok without further due, let get into action.

01.    Download the C3P0 driver from SourceForge
02.    Extract the  c3p0-0.9.1.2.jar file into \biserver-ce\tomcat\common\lib\
03.    Open the mysql5.hibernate.cfg.xml XML file in the \biserver-ce\pentaho-solutions\system\hibernate\ folder
04.    Add the following code into the file

<!— hibernate c3p0 settings —>
<property name=”connection.provider_class”>org.hibernate.connection.C3P0ConnectionProvider</property>
<property name=”hibernate.c3p0.acquire_increment”>3</property>
<property name=”hibernate.c3p0.idle_test_period”>10</property>
<property name=”hibernate.c3p0.min_size”>5</property>
<property name=”hibernate.c3p0.max_size”>75</property>
<property name=”hibernate.c3p0.max_statements”>0</property>
<property name=”hibernate.c3p0.timeout”>25200</property>
<property name=”hibernate.c3p0.preferredTestQuery”>select 1</property>
<property name=”hibernate.c3p0.testConnectionOnCheckout”>true</property>
