Could not open Hibernate Session for transaction on First Login

I have a full operating Spring MVC Application running with Spring Security but I get the following error whenever the server hasn't been active in a while and someone tries to login:

HTTP Status 500 - Request processing failed; nested exception is org.springframework.transaction.CannotCreateTransactionException: Could not open Hibernate Session for transaction; nested exception is org.hibernate.TransactionException: JDBC begin transaction failed

Sometimes after (approximately 5 seconds later) it starts to work normally.

I searched and found this link but I don't know how to configure connection testing in the connection pool configuration.

Any advice?

EDIT:

I found this link to set the configuration pool, so I tried to implement it in my dataSource:

<bean id="dataSource" class="org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource"        destroy-method="close"><property name="driverClassName" value="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" /><property name="url" value="jdbc:mysql://192.168.254.45:3306/7jogos" /><property name="password" value="..." /><property name="username" value="..." /><!--      Configuration pool --><property name="validationQuery" value="SELECT 1" /><property name="validationInterval" value="34000" /><property name="testOnBorrow" value="true" /><property name="removeAbandoned" value="true" /><property name="removeAbandonedTimeout" value="55" /></bean>

But I end up getting an error on validationInterval saying:

Multiple annotations found at this line: - No setter found for property 'validationInterval' in class 'org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource'
