Hi, We are having issues with our web interface (WI) to zookeeper. We deployed a java app (WI), in tomcat, which shows a (mostly read-only) UI for the zk tree, in our cluster. The app had been deployed quite some time ago. However, recently, it is going down many times, in the recent past, showing these errors in the catalina.out. These errors are coming continuously in the catalina.out, while the website is down.

Always, restarting tomcat helps. But since the problem is occurring many times, we want to understand why is this happening? Is there a known ZK issue which could cause such behavior? Thanks Udaya
