jdbc connection - UnknownHostException

От

Hello list,
Can anyone help me with this issue?
I'm trying to write a bean (used within the struts framwork) that gives some methods about managing the database,
locatedon http://myhost1.org. After some attempts, the connection succeded, but when a tried it again, I received an
UnknownHostException.I've then tried after many things to connect through the db with another alias, http://myhost2.org
(whichis the very same ip than myhost1.org), and it works a few times. 

I've then written a small test class, which looks very like what is in the bean, to connect on a postgresql:

Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver"); //load the driver
db=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:postgresql://myhost1.org:5432/dbname", "user", "pwd");
//...
db.close();

and it works fine, no exceptions (loading driver and connecting ok).
But in the same time, the connection in the bean does not succeed any more...

The driver is always correctly loaded.
What am I missing? thanks for any answer :)

Is it possible that some security software (firewall or such) is running on
myhostn.org which might regard activity on port 5432 suspicious & close the
connection? Sometimes when connections seem to work & then quickly stop,
this is the cause.

Nick,

Thanks for your answer. But no, no security application can be disturbing that connection. Strange is that it worked
formyhost2 and no more with myhost1...  
When it worked, it worked great (different select).
If postgresql wasn't accepting connections (pg configuration / firewall), should I not receive another exception than
thisUnknownHostException?

Good point. I'd expect a different error message, but thought it was
possible that unresponsiveness might result in this one. I was keying in
more on the inconsistent behavior.

Now that I think about it, a more likely possibility is that the DNS server
responsible for resolving myhost1.org is not responding quickly, so the
lookup times out in some cases. what happens if you try to replace
"myhost1.org" with the actual IP address?

You are right: it works with the ip address. I'm still not sure it was a problem with the dns resolution, but the fact
is,I didn't have any new UnknownHostException since 1-2 days...  
Thanks Nick for your help, and if you have another idea, let me know :)
