I have a web app deployed in Tomcat. Part of that Web app is a proxy, written as a JSP that forwards requests to another URL. The URL that is being forwarded is an HTTPS URL, so the proxy opens an HTTPS connection. I have the certificate in the truststore in Tomcat's JVM. The connections work fine for a day or so and then all of a sudden ( after maybe a day of it working fine ) it starts to fail consistently on all requests. Restarting tomcat fixes the problem until about another day or so, with the following error. I'm running Tomcat 8.5.31.0 and Java 1.8.0_221
