Hi,
Not sure if it is the cause here, but I have experienced this exception
on the client side of one of our projects (although it does not use
Jersey). The basic problem is, if running on Windows, it will only allow
a certain number of ports to be open simultaneously and if you exceed
that limit then you will receive that exception.
We experienced it when running a suite of integration tests with 3000
odd cases, although we were not using that may ports at once, it takes
time for windows to recycle the port once you have finished with it, so
a lot of ports get left in a unusable state and eventually run out. It
was a random exception that didn't always happen or happen in the same
place but you could see all the ports being used by running a netstat.
We managed to alleviate the problem slightly through better use of
HttpClient but it has not solved it completely. You can set the maximum
port limit in Windows via the registry but that's not a particularly
nice "fix".
Cheers,
Tim

I misunderstood your original email, when you were describing the
similarity.
I see the exception occurs when the client is attempting to open the
connection, even before any bytes are written.
Are you saying this only occurs with a POST request? if so what about a
GET request?
How many requests do you make for this to occur?
It is indeed an odd exception on the client side. I have never observed
this before (we have some tests that start embedded servers and use the
client API). It is not clear to me if the error message is being sent
from the server to the client, i would presume it would be since this is
really associated with the server side, implying some issue with the
server side configuration as Tatu suggests.
