Unable to get the connection through Java process

Hi All,

When I try to connect postgreySQL 7.2 server through a java
process, I get the following error

An I/O error occured while reading from backend - Exception:
java.net.SocketException: Connection reset by peer: JVM_recv in socket
input stream read Stack Trace: java.net.SocketException: Connection
reset by peer: JVM_recv in socket input stream read at
java.net.SocketInputStream.socketRead(Native Method)

Any help would be greately appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Murali
