Intermittent SSL Could not generate DH keypair error in JBoss EAP 6 and 7

Issue

• SSL errors with web service that temporarily disappear after a restart of JBoss
• Error in server.log: handling exception: java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not generate DH keypair (with javax.net.debug=ssl)

• Getting the following error:

  java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException: parameter object not a ECParameterSpec 
    at org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.JDKKeyPairGenerator$EC.initialize(Unknown Source) 
    at sun.security.ssl.ECDHCrypt.<init>
  

• Recieving ssl_error_internal_error_alert when using Chrome and Firefox, but Internet Explorer (IE) is able to access the https URL.
