The answer should be visible on the other end of this connection.  An EOF in a 
readObject() call indicates that the other end could not send the data.  As Bill 
suggested, this can almost always be attributed to the other end trying to write 
out a serialized stream of something that is not serializable.  Sometimes, I've 
found this to be odd Exception class implementations from oracle and other JDBC 
stacks, as well as various other problems.  If this always happens, then most 
likely you have a data value serialization problem (including the same Exception 
is happening every time).
