Zulfi,

My only guess is that this is a thread synchronization related problem,
as the problem appears to be irregular. 

How do you set the request body? As an InputStream? How do you set the
content length? Explicitly or as CONTENT_LENGTH_AUTO? Can it be that the
input stream is exhausted before HttpClient has a chance to send its
content across the wire?

Can you send me the context/wire log for the HTTP transaction in
question?
