Resolution

The java.io.EOFException can be ignored. They simply means that the input stream of the connection ended. Normally, the connection will complete and client may tell the end the connection.  In this case the server has disconnected from its side.

Additional Information

Note:  If the user cannot connect or has any other issues, then check the network.  Make sure the client hostname is resolvable by server side and vice-versa.
