JBoss 3.2.3, W2K, Sun JVM 1.4.2-b28

On the server side, I have multiple JMS queues that have EJBs posting messages to various queues using a ConnectionFactory obtained via "java:/JmsXA". I also have MDBs attached to some of the queues firing into the EJB tier. Everything is CMT.

On the client side, I have a Swing applet that connects to the various queues via the "ConnectionFactory" jndi name not "java:/JmsXA".

From time to time, I get the following exception in the client when trying to use a QueueBrowser to view the contents of the queue.

I never get the exception if there is no activity on the server.

Is there a possible issue with intermixing "java:/JmsXA" and "normal" jms connections?

Is it a resource issue?
