issue in sending push notification using push queue.

[Google Code Exporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Use push queue with 5 thread, the code is 

int threads = 5;
PushQueue queue;

public void init(){
    queue = Push.queue("//APNS_Production_Certificates.p12", apnspassword, true, threads);
    new Thread() {
         public void run() {
        queue.start();
         }
    }.start();
}
2. when send message,use the code
public void sendNotification(String deviceId,String message){
    PushNotificationPayload payload =   PushNotificationPayload.alert(message);
    try{
            queue.add(payload, deviceId);
    }catch(InvalidDeviceTokenFormatException invalidDeviceexception){
        Logger.serviceLog.warn(MODULE + "Exception in sending message to IOS Server:" + invalidDeviceexception, invalidDeviceexception);
    }
}
3.every time it work but every time it sent on second attempt.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

1. As I am using queue and in init method I am starting queue so in init method 
it show logs
Initialized Connection to Host: [gateway.push.apple.com] Port: [2195]: 
17e8fb6[SSL_NULL_WITH_NULL_NULL: 
Socket[addr=gateway.push.apple.com/17.172.232.30,port=2195,localport=3610]]
this means connection is already established.

but when I call the sendNotification(deviceId) method i.e. whenever 
queue.add(payload, deviceId); this line executed 
it show below logs every time

156842 [JavaPNS grouped notification thread in QUEUE mode] INFO 
javapns.notification.PushNotificationManager null - Attempt failed (Remote host 
closed connection during handshake)... trying again

Creating SSLSocket to gateway.push.apple.com:2195

Attempting to send notification: {"aps":{"alert":"hi cool"}}
157217 [JavaPNS grouped notification thread in QUEUE mode] DEBUG 
javapns.notification.PushNotificationManager null -

158092 [JavaPNS grouped notification thread in QUEUE mode] DEBUG 
javapns.notification.PushNotificationManager null - Flushing
158092 [JavaPNS grouped notification thread in QUEUE mode] DEBUG 
javapns.notification.PushNotificationManager null - At this point, the entire 
142-bytes message has been streamed out successfully through the SSL connection
158092 [JavaPNS grouped notification thread in QUEUE mode] DEBUG 
javapns.notification.PushNotificationManager null - Notification sent on second 
attempt

So My question is why I am getting "Remote host closed connection during 
handshake" every time I send notification. As it is establishing connection in 
init() method. every time it send notification on second attempt. 


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
javapns 2.2 ,Java Web Application , Linux

Please provide any additional information below.
I think the queue mechanism is not working properly. So suggest me the best way 
to use queue or any other mechanism.I want to use the solution for production 
environment. if it create connection every time then its waste of time and loss 
of TPS.

Please suggest me the root cause. please find attached log file.

How much time passes between the time you started the queue and the time you 
send your notification?  Is it possible that your connection to APNS simply 
closed because it remained to long without activity, probably from Apple's side?
