We have multiple instances of JBoss running on one Linux box.
Some JBoss instance occasionally resulted in the error. However,
other instances of JBoss seem running without error. So, I don't
think any of the items above is a cause of the error.

We can recover from the error by shutting down and restarting
the JBoss instance in error(no need to shutdown/restart Firebird SS).
This might suggest that something in JBoss connection management
is wrong.

We will appreciate any help/suggestions.

Thanks,
