Sockets – An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine

apache-minaquickfixsockets

The application uses quickfixj library, which uses Apache Mina.
This application keeps a socket connection to a remote host.

Suddenly we get the following error:

[SocketConnectorIoProcessor-0.0]   - ERROR quickfix.mina.initiator.InitiatorIoHandler  - socket exception (/xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xx): An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine

where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xx is the remote address.

What may be causing the connection drop? The remote host? My OS?

Best Answer

The connection was being dropped by some switch because the machine bandwidth was too high (above the limit)
