Error when executing query with jasync-sql: "Can't run query because there is one query pending already"

Question

We're currently using jasync-sql PostgreSQL async library in a Ktor service and we're getting:

14:02:20.005 [DefaultDispatcher-worker-1] ERROR com.github.jasync.sql.db.postgresql.PostgreSQLConnection - Can't run query because there is one query pending already
14:02:20.008 [nettyCallPool-4-1] ERROR Application - Unhandled: GET - /api/customer_book_list

Do we have to open a connection for each request? Or maybe the configuration is wrong?

In jasync-sql each Connection can handle one statement execution at a time. For multiple connections the best approach is using a ConnectionPool like this:

PoolConfiguration poolConfiguration = new PoolConfiguration(
        100,                            // maxObjects
        TimeUnit.MINUTES.toMillis(15),  // maxIdle
        10_000,                         // maxQueueSize
        TimeUnit.SECONDS.toMillis(30)   // validationInterval
);
Connection connectionPool = new ConnectionPool<>(
                                  new PostgreSQLConnectionFactory (configuration), poolConfiguration);

Connection itself do not have a buffer or queue for pending requests, so unless you want to create a connection per request which is inefficient, a connection pool should be used.

A complete Kotlin example can be found here: https://github.com/jasync-sql/jasync-sql/blob/master/samples/ktor/src/application.kt
