JAVA-POSTGRESQL connection broken

Hi ,

We have a issue here wherein, we are trying to connect postgresql db (7.2)
and perform batch insert and delete, for configurable number of db records.
We are using addBatch of statement class of JDBC, to perform this.

Number of records to be deleted is configurable and typically 5000.

We are often getting this error and the java program is exiting before
receiving the result from postgres.
In postgres log, i could see the query sent by java program is getting
executed. Can someone help in pointing out the issue here?

# -----------------------------
# PostgreSQL configuration file
# -----------------------------
#
# This file consists of lines of the form:
#
# name = value
#
# (The '=' is optional.) White space may be used. Comments are introduced
# with '#' anywhere on a line. The complete list of option names and
# allowed values can be found in the PostgreSQL documentation. The
# commented-out settings shown in this file represent the default values.
#
# Any option can also be given as a command line switch to the
# postmaster, e.g. 'postmaster -c log_connections=on'. Some options
# can be changed at run-time with the 'SET' SQL command.
#
# This file is read on postmaster startup and when the postmaster
# receives a SIGHUP. If you edit the file on a running system, you have
# to SIGHUP the postmaster for the changes to take effect, or use
# "pg_ctl reload".
