This happens whenever the server receives an Athena message which is not valid json. A common reason for this to happen is a proxy sitting between the server and client which decides to send a truncated request. The client can recover from this in most cases, so it should be transparent to the user, but it gets logged on the server since it's not explicitly handled there. Just yesterday someone suggested that the server could report this failure mode a little more clearly. That'd be fine with me.
