org.postgresql.util.PSQLException：连接尝试失败

Question

I am connecting to postgres data base using java web services ( apache axis ) with JDBC connections to get the data.But suddenly in most of times i am getting an exception of org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: The connection attempt failed. and some times it is working fine. Here I am using many prepared statements. My sample code is

Connection connection=null;
try
{
    Class.forName(driver);
    connection = DriverManager.getConnection(url, username, password);
    ps1=connection.prepareStatement("select * from emp");
    rs1=ps1.executeQuery();
    while(rs1.next())
    {            
        ps2=connection.prepareStatement("select * from dept where dept_no="+rs1.getInt("dept_no"));
        rs2=ps2.executeQuery();
        while(rs2.next())
        {
            ................
            ................
        }
    }
}
catch(Exception e)
{
    System.out.println("Exception occurred is"+e.getMessage());            
}
finally
{
    try{if(rs1!=null)rs1.close();}catch(Exception e){ System.out.println("*1closing error--->"+e);}
    try{if(ps1!=null)ps1.close();}catch(Exception e){ System.out.println("**1closing error--->"+e);}
    try{if(rs2!=null)rs2.close();}catch(Exception e){ System.out.println("*2closing error--->"+e);}
    try{if(ps2!=null)ps2.close();}catch(Exception e){ System.out.println("**2closing error--->"+e);}
    try{if(connection!=null)connection.close();}catch(Exception e){ System.out.println("***closing error--->"+e);}
}

stack trace about this exception is

I checked the postgres logs and i found the following statements in different cases

1.WARNING: worker took too long to start; cancelled.

2.could not reattach to shared memory (key=...., addr=.....): 487.

3.could not receive data from client: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.

4.unexpected EOF on client connection.

please help me.Thanks In advance

Answer 1

The real problem is:

Caused by: java.net.SocketException: Connection reset
    at java.net.SocketInputStream.read

The connection was closed when Java tried to read from it. This can be caused by:

• The PostgreSQL server being restarted
• The PostgreSQL backend you were connected to being terminated
• The PostgreSQL backend you were connected to crashing
• Dodgy network connection
• Badly behaved stateful firewalls
• Idle connections timing out of the NAT connection tables of NAT firewall/routers

... and probably more. Check the PostgreSQL server logs to see if there's anything informative there; also consider doing some network tracing with a tool like Wireshark.

Answer 2

Fixed for me:

hop onto the pg_hba.conf file and under IPV4 connection change its 127.xxxx to the 0.0.0.0/0

double check: hop onto the postgresql.conf and change the listenaddresses to * (im sure you know that you need to delete the starting # first in order to make it work)

Good luck!

Answer 3

Try chekin Postgresql version, in my case I deployed my app with:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.postgresql</groupId>
        <artifactId>postgresql</artifactId>
        <version>42.2.16</version>
    </dependency>

But in local I used 42.2.18 and worked fine, so I din't know after checking version, so you should try another versions maybe.
