MySQL自动关闭连接导致DBCP报错

长时间不操作页面后，再操作时程序就会报错，异常如下：

com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.CommunicationsException:Communications link failure

Thelast packet successfully received from the server was 8,064,672 millisecondsago. The last packet sent successfully to the server was 8,064,672 millisecondsago.

原因是DBCP保持连接的超时时间比MySQL连接超时时间长。mysql配置中的wait_timeout值一定要大于等于连接池的idle_timeout值，否则mysql会在wait_timeout的时间后关闭连接，然而连接池还认为该连接可用，这样就会产生异常。

通过MySQL客户端连到服务器，查看目前的配置。
