SimpleHttpConnectionManager being used incorrectly

[tobias]

Hello,

Happy New Year to everyone!

I got a problem with my Spring-WS implementation.

To give a quick description. It is a normal Spring Web Service where the messages are routed to an endpoint. From the endpoint I invoke a connector class which extends WebServiceGatewaySupport to invoke another Web Service.

When I do heavy unit testing with concurrent requets I get the following error:

SimpleHttpConnectionManager being used incorrectly. Be sure that HttpMethod.releaseConnection() is always called and that only one thread and/or method is using this connection manager at a time.

Do I have to synchronize the invoke method of the class which extends WebServiceGatewaySupport? Or do I need to release the connection manually?

thanks for any help,

Tobias

the only work around I found so far was to synchronize the send and receive activity:

synchronized (logger) { getWebServiceTemplate().sendSourceAndReceiveToResu lt(request, result);
}

Are these calls not threads safe? We're seeing the exact same error and it's killing our threads on the server. Using version 1.5.9.

Spring comes with default single thread connection manager. I have updated my client the following way:
<bean id="httpClient" class="org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient">
<property name="params" ref="httpParams" />
<property name="httpConnectionManager" ref="connectionManager" />
</bean>


<bean id="connectionManager"
class = "org.apache.commons.httpclient.MultiThreadedHttpCo nnectionManager" />

That fixed the problem.

Can you tell where exactly should be inserted this code?
