Hi Team,

    We found the following exception in GlassFish server log. Is this is a known issue? Is there any work around for this problem?

I do not have any special steps to reproduce this. How ever this Exception appeared on two different machines with the following configuration.

Server details :
GlassFish V2
jdk1.6.0_05
Solaris 10 on T2K
