Bug: Hibernate connection times out (after the maxWait duration set for the datasource), and gives error message in the log – “Timeout waiting for idle object”
Reason: Some operations were done using Hibernate session instead of Spring HibernateTemplate ; which were obtained using HibernateTemplate.getSession() function, and were not released by calling the HibernateTemplate.releaseSession();
Solution: Call this.releaseSession() from inside a spring-hibernateDao after the db operations. (ideally in a finally block).
