The error appears randomly with no stack trace that relates to our code. I googled the APR codes but could not make sense on how to interpret this error accordingly. It is always -730054. Can anyone shed the light on what it could possibly mean?

Any luck fixing this error? I'm getting that exact APR error using IE11 with angularjs, Tomcat8, and a Spring Boot application deployed as a war (I know, make jar, not war). It happens at seemingly random intervals when retrieving static content. It does not seem to affect the application either way; the IE11/angular client works and the api/service has no trouble either. I saw somewhere that this could happen if the application navigates away from the current href/location while still downloading resources, but I haven't confirmed that's what is happening for me yet. — Pytry, Dec 06 '16 at 15:22
So far I haven't fixed it, just one thing to note that I found googling is that it something to do with `out of memory`. — serge, Dec 06 '16 at 18:35

Here's a compelling explanation that I cannot prove:

730054 = 720000 (Tomcat APR_OS_START_SYSERR) + 10054 (WSAECONNRESET)

In other words, connection reset by peer, so the client dropped the connection and there's nothing to do on the server side about it.

I guess I'll accept it since there are no better answers. The only question is why is it happening? And how to prevent it? – serge Feb 01 '17 at 17:52

This error comes about when, for example, a user's computer or internet connection dies. Or maybe they get bored and cancel halfway through an operation. I don't think it's preventable and all you can really do IMO is make a tiny log entry about it on the server and clean up resources. – Ed Norris Feb 01 '17 at 18:12
That fits my experience. A WS endpoint took over a minute to complete a database query, by which time the client had (quite understandably) timed-out. Found "java.io.IOException: APR error: -730054" in the log, from our web service boundary filter. – David Easley Aug 31 '17 at 15:01
