Tomcat Error - "SEVERE: BAD packet signature"

[a]

Hi,

I am running into an unusual problem with Tomcat (Apache acting as a
proxy). The catalina.out log shows

Mar 2, 2007 9:17:35 PM org.apache.jk.common.MsgAjp processHeader
SEVERE: BAD packet signature 18245
Mar 2, 2007 9:17:35 PM org.apache.jk.common.ChannelSocket
processConnection
SEVERE: Error, processing connection
java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException

at org.apache.jk.common.ChannelSocket.read(ChannelSocket.java:601)

at org.apache.tomcat.util.threads.ThreadPool
$ControlRunnable.run(ThreadPool.java:684)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:595)

Has anybody run into this problem before? The application runs fine
for weeks and then it may exhibit this behavior. The only way to get
around this is by restarting Tomcat, which I am reluctantly doing.

The application involves few users, but a potentially time-consuming
separate thread, which may run for a couple of hours.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
