Blogging Roller

It took me a while to figure this out so... heads up! If you are using the MySQL Connector/J v3.0.7 JDBC driver then watch out for the infinite loop problem. This is a "known issue that happens when connections and statements are closed in particular circumstances." A fix will be included in the Connector/J v3.0.8 release.

In my case, this appeared as an intermittent problem with the Roller login. This problem appeared the other day on my site, causing Roller logins to fail, so I switched to one of the MySQL Connector/J v3.0.X nightlies and it seems to have solved the problem.
