Please see my comments inline.

Does the server/service report (usually log) anything relevant 
to your access/connection/request/whatever? In particular, if 
it logs something about "server error" you need to look there. 
If it too reports seeing a reset, coming from your direction, 
then you need to look for something in the network in between.

<Chitra>  The server application is also within our control only.Hence we
were able to monitor the server also. Its clear from the server logs that
server is getting the request and sending the response. So i dont suspect
the network. 

If this is a network problem, it may be easier to look for it
using clear data. Do you have the option of connecting to 
these servers/services without SSL (or with SSL but using 
an eNULL ciphersuite) and if so does it have the same problem?
(Obviously you should do that only with nonconfidential data.
If there is higher-level authentication e.g. password, use 
a temporarily assigned and immediately disabled test id, etc.)

<Chitra> We have tried that also. This problem doesnt happen when we access
the http webservice. This occurs only when we access the service in https
mode. Is there any way we can decrypt the packets and view the packets sent
in https mode.

I am an novice in openSSL and not very sure how to use SSL using eNULL
ciphersuite. Since we are depending on gSOAP generated stubs, and these
stubs use openSSL dlls (ssleay.lib and libeay.lib) for the https webservice
calls. While debugging, we found that the SSL_read() returned this error
(SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL).

There was another entry in this forum stating the same problem, and they
have mentioned that this is a configuration issue. This can be resolved by
changing the ciphersuite to default. But its not clear where should we
change it , in the server or in the client? You may find the post in this
