Hello,
Can you provide a little more detail on your configuration including:
1) is the FM Client on the same host as FM Server?
2) If you're not using a client on the FM Server, have you tried a client on the FM Server?
3) Did this previously work?
4) What version of JRE is installed?
Thank you.

See the answers below
1) is the FM Client on the same host as FM Server?
I used my laptop,my collegues and also the client on the FM server. It gives same error.
2) If you're not using a client on the FM Server, have you tried a client on the FM Server?
I tried it and it gives same error.
3) Did this previously work?
It happened previously and EMC suggests reinstalling FM but it works for a week or so and
we have same issue again.
4) What version of JRE is installed?
java version "1.5.0_06"

Thank you for the information.
I've hit the same error when I had a firewall installed on the FM Server. I would recommend stopping any firewall, antivirius, or other software that may be possibly blocking a required port. Per the FM config guide:
The Fabric Manager Server component requires two predictable TCP ports to be opened on the firewall for an incoming connection:
server.port = 9099
server.data.port = 9100
As long as these two ports are open, Fabric Manager Client can connect to the server. Other TCP ports connected to Fabric Manager Client are initiated by the server, which is behind the firewall.
What concerns me is that you can reinstall FM and it works again for a while and then fails again. This appears to state that something is after the reinstall being done to the host the FM Server / Client is installed on to either block a necessary port or to load software that conflicts with it. I would try experimenting with a generic host (a test host with as little software installed on it) and see if you can find what is loaded or rule added that is affecting it. You might also want to try removing Java, removing FMS completely, reinstalling Java, and then reinstalling FMS to ensure that everything is installed correctly.
Thank you.
