We are facing this error intermittently. If we restart the server it works for some time and again the problem start.

We also have another load balanced server with similar configuration and that is working fine.

The server is running on Linux box. If we do the "ps -ef" its listing the TOMCAT process.

URL : https://xyz.abc.com:9234/axis/servlet/AxisServlet

Following the configuration in server.xml file.

 <Connector className="org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteConnector"
               port="9234" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75"
               enableLookups="true"
           acceptCount="100" debug="0" scheme="https" secure="true"
               useURIValidationHack="false" disableUploadTimeout="true">
      <Factory className="org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteServerSocketFactory"
               clientAuth="false" protocol="TLS" />
    </Connector>

• Is it the problem with our load balancer which is forwarding most requests to this server?
• Is it any way related to the "maxProcessors" or "acceptCount" attributes defined in the above configuration?
• Is it the problem with the port number??
• Does it have to do any thing with the certificate. The certificate is generated using Java Keytool. ( However, the other load balanced server is also using the same certificate and working fine)

Please suggest in resolving this issue. thanks
