This is a pretty old release, and I notice that in the current 3.1 or 5.0 exception shouldn't happen, as the driver will check if the statement is closed or something would cause a NPE in that code path. Can you upgrade?

Yes I guess it's possible to upgrade. Thanks!

Upgraded to the newest Version of the driver and it didn't happen again. But since I haven't been able to reproduce the bug in a testing environment, I am not sure if this really means something. However, I am happy so far with the newer version and trust you that the bug I reported is fixed.

Thank you for your bug report. This issue has already been fixed in the latest released version of that product, which you can download at http://www.mysql.com/downloads/ Explanation: Hi Cedric. I am glad your problem doesn't show up any more. Thanks for your interest in MySQL.

Description: I am using the "mysql-connector-java-3.1-nightly-20051124-bin.patched.ExportControlled.jar" library to make connections to a MySQL database. I have a method where I make the following statement: [code] public void closeConnection ( ResultSet rs, Statement stmt, Connection conn ) { ... if ( stmt != null ) { Connection innerConn = null; try { innerConn = stmt.getConnection(); } catch (SQLException e) {...} ... [/code] Sometimes, not too often, it happens that the getConnection-call on the Statement Object causes the following NullPointerException: Stack-Trace: java.lang.NullPointerException: null com.mysql.jdbc.PreparedStatement.asSql(PreparedStatement.java:516) com.mysql.jdbc.PreparedStatement.asSql(PreparedStatement.java:507) com.mysql.jdbc.PreparedStatement.toString(PreparedStatement.java:3286) org.apache.commons.dbcp.DelegatingPreparedStatement.toString(DelegatingPrepa redStatement.java:211) org.apache.commons.dbcp.DelegatingStatement.checkOpen(DelegatingStatement.ja va:137) org.apache.commons.dbcp.DelegatingStatement.getConnection(DelegatingStatemen t.java:201) org.homelinux.ced.db.RootDatabase.closeConnection(RootDatabase.java:222) ... How to repeat: Unfortunately I haven't yet found a way to reproduce that Bug in a testing environment.
