Thanks Sean, I'm using credit messages for explicit flow control at the
application layer. So I think, I'm posting the buffers before the sender
sends the data (I'll double check on this). Is there any other reason that
can cause this?

I've read in RDMAMojo site that this can happen due to some attribute
mismatches. But I'm not sure what they are saying. Also the client and
server are on the same machine.

Supun..
