AXIS2 webservice client java.net.SocketException: Connection reset

Question

I'm creating a client using axis2 to consume a third party ws, everything works fine in the tomcat server in my machine, but once deployed to the server I'm not able to run it.

I have already checked:

Third party URL is up and running
No firewalls in the server
Tomcat reports AXIS2 is working correctly (checking the AXIS2 happy page)

[INFO] Unable to sendViaPost to url[http://third.party.URL]
java.net.SocketException: Connection reset
    at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:168)
    at java.io.BufferedInputStream.fill(BufferedInputStream.java:218)
    at java.io.BufferedInputStream.read(BufferedInputStream.java:237)
    at org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpParser.readRawLine(HttpParser.java:78)
    at org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpParser.readLine(HttpParser.java:106)

Any suggestions?

Have you checked whether the server can access the third party URL (with wget or curl or something like that)? — Mat
Yes, by the time we had the issue we were able to reach the third-party url by curl... that was all the axis2 client options. — Billy Tobon

FOUND IT! actually is not something about the Tomcat server but the AXIS2 Client configuration, by this post http://wso2.org/forum/thread/1878

You might need to set the HEADER_PROTOCOL_10 in the stub properties.

Options options=stub._getServiceClient().getOptions();
options.setProperty(org.apache.axis2.transport.http.HTTPConstants.HTTP_PROTOCOL_VERSION,org.apache.axis2.transport.http.HTTPConstants.HEADER_PROTOCOL_10);

Now works!!!
