Hi Markus, Thanks for the help. I also suspected it to be a memory issue but after wrangling with the problem for days I just tried it on a different EC2 instance, with same jdk and lo behold! it worked without the slightest of problems.
I have no clue what was causing the trouble and this is frustrating but glad that it finally did, albeit on a different machine. Thanks, --Sudip.
