I'm looking for an expert's input on this problem.

I have a java application that connects with remote system via SOAP API. We have this same application (client) running across multiple laptops and hitting various environments (dev, test and production) as required. All is fine except in one laptop in which requests to production (only) fail intermittently. The exception I'm getting is given below:

Do you have any idea what might have happened? To remind you, this happens in only one of many laptops running the same code and config, only in production environment (It's working great in all other environments. There never is any problem), and only at times.

One more thing: if I make calls using SOAPUI from the same laptop, there's no exception.

Your time and response is very appreciated.

Thank you.

EDIT

Additionally, there's one message that keeps popping on this particular laptop only (in eclipse log). I'm not sure this could be a reason though:

Mar 14, 2013 12:19:30 PM org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.support.DefaultHandlerExceptionResolver handleHttpRequestMethodNotSupported

  • the log shows Connection reset. Did you check your connection yet ? Commented Mar 14, 2013 at 6:15
  • yes, it's not because of internet connection for sure. Commented Mar 14, 2013 at 6:33
  • did you try telnet to the port ? Okay to view in browser does not mean your connection is successful. Commented Mar 14, 2013 at 6:35
  • As I mentioned, when I make a SOAP request with SOAPUI, the request is always successful. Commented Mar 14, 2013 at 6:41
  • I've added one more information in EDIT. That might give some clue. Commented Mar 14, 2013 at 6:43

Sounds unlikely, but it was because of JDK version. We downgraded JDK version from 1.7 to 1.6 and it worked flawlessly.

Turns out, we banged our head for a whole month to later find out it was version incompatibility :o

In my case it was the server that switched from using JDK 1.6 to 1.7 and then the client started throwing errors. Thanks to you banging your head for a month I only had to bang my head for six hours.
honestly a whole month?

Based on the information given, the root error is:

Request method 'HEAD' not supported

You can tell your controller to support the HEAD method using setSupportedMethods(String[] supportedMethodsArray).

Actually our application nowhere makes a HEAD request explicitly. I wonder where this came from. The thing is, this doesn't display in other laptops with the same code and database.
Defining HEAD support on server side is also not an option because we're developing only the client side application.
