An IOException thrown when I try to upload a file to my blob container

Question

Hi all, when I using Java to upload a FLV to my free trial storage account, an IOException occurs, can anybody tell me what's the reason for this problem? and how to solve this problem?

} catch (InterruptedException ie) {

blob.upload(new FileInputStream(localFile), localFile.length());
long endTime = System.currentTimeMillis();

localFile.getAbsoluteFile(), localFile.length(), startTime, endTime, (endTime - startTime) });
