I'm getting this very same exception.

No additional information follows and it appears in the logs as a WARNING message. In addition, it appears that my running transaction on this thread simply dies, leaving all work performed in the database dangling. This causes locks to be held and other processes blocked, resulting in us having to kill the hanging process.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
