excaliber2310:

this is most likely caused by a connection rejection by weblogic. try setting your open file size to (file-max) greater to what it is now. e.g. 65535

radha77:

The problem I faced was with an external server that was closing the connection after a period of inactivity, for example more than 10 minutes. I set up a cron process to ping the server every 5 minutes to keep the connection alive that resolved the problem.

If you can identify the process that is getting closed, you can probably do something similar.
