java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out

843842Aug 19 2009 — edited Aug 19 2009
Hello friends! I'm very confused by this problem...

I have two applications in Java, a client and a servlet. The client connects to servlet by:
         URLConnection con = getServletConnection();
                  OutputStream outstream = con.getOutputStream();
                  ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(outstream);
                  oos.writeObject(myObject);
                  oos.flush();
                  oos.close();
The servlet recibes the object with POST method, and works with him.

This application has worked fine over 2 years for all the people , but today.. misteriously not works for a few clients located in a similar geographic zone, and i don't know why...

In my tomcat log appears the next error every time this "conflictive" clients try to connect:

"java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out
at java.net.SocketInputStream.socketRead0(Native Method)
at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:155)
at java.io.BufferedInputStream.fill(BufferedInputStream.java:229)
...."

For all the other people, still works fine. It seems like a particullary zone clients not sending good connections to my tomcat.

Thanks a lot!

This is a network issue. Check all routers and firewalls if none of all are blocking the data.

This problem is not related to servlets. You got an exception of java.net package, not of javax.servlet package.
