Good morning, I am still working on the 'socket connection' problem. According to the Connotate tech support a possible reason of getting this exception is that the connection is not being closed on the client, but instead, released to the pool:
"The socket closure is happening on the WMS side. That is, since the connection is not being closed on the client side between each invocation, the server eventually enters an invalid state and forcibly closes the connection. When that happens depends on a number of things and would appear to be almost random from the client point of view... A verification of the connection pooling behavior or a test run with code that guarantees closure of the connection would be needed to eliminate it. " I am doubtful of this explanation. I create a new HTTPClient object for each request (using the SimpleHttpConnectionManager object), and looking through the HTTPClient code I do not see how the connection can be re-used in such situation. Yet you guys and the guys at Connotate certainly know this subject better than I do, and I an eager to try everything. My question is: does this explanation seem plausible to you? If yes, what would be the way to force-close the connection after the request? Can I do this using the "connection: close" header params?
