Sockets hang using PrintWriter and BufferedReader
Solaris 2.7, and Java 1.2.2
My thread is passed a new socket = s. I then assign:
InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(s.getInputStream());
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(isr);
PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(s.getOutputStream());
The client program then sends records. If each record has only a "\r" then
the program fails. If the client sends a "\n" or "\r\n" then the program
works fine.
The documentation for BufferedReader states that it looks for a "\r" or a
"\n" or a "\r\n".
I don't get any indication that there is a problem other than the hang.
Upon Connect...
Server> send("0000\n")
client> recv("0000\n")
client> send("0001\r")
Server> recv("0001")
Server> send("0002\n")
client> recv -- nothing...
Server> recv paused...
I have run truss on this process and it shows that nothing is sent on the last server send above. When the client gives up (e.g. timeout) the the send completes as truss sees it.
Is this a bug in 1.2.2. or a documentation error?
use flush()!!

Why using BefferedReder and PrintWriter if we have Input/OutputStream
hi
i've been wondering if we have an InputStream and OutputStream why using PrintWriter and BufferedReader
in=s.getInputStream();
out=s.getOutputStream();
bfr=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));
writer=new PrintWriter(out,true);where s ia a socket

Edited by: scrolldown on Mar 29, 2008 3:04 AMEverything that is a InputStream/OutputStream is used to handle raw byte streams.
Everything that is a Reader/Writer is used to handle character data.
In your case the InputStreamReader provides the conversion from raw bytes to character data. Usually it does so using some specified encoding, in your case it uses your platform default encoding.
The PrintWriter does the same for the output, but doesn't allow you to specify an encoding (for this you'd have to use an OutputStreamWriter).
And please note, that it's usually an error to do any byte -> character or character -> byte conversion without specifying a character set, especially when handling sockets, because then the platform default encoding will be used which can be different from computer to computer and thus you don't know what exactly is sent over the wire.
If you don't know what I'm talking about, then read [The Absolute Minimum Every Software Developer Absolutely, Positively Must Know About Unicode and Character Sets (No Excuses!)|http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/Unicode.html], an excellent article that gives a good overview over the matter. -
Difference between printwriter and servletoutputstream
we can use printwriter and servletoutputstream to send the response to client ,but what is the difference between them
we can use printwriter and servletoutputstream to send the
response to client ,but what is the difference between themDid you read documentation ?
It says: To send binary data in a MIME body response, use the ServletOutputStream returned by getOutputStream(). To send character data, use the PrintWriter object returned by getWriter(). -
Possible to use both a PrintWriter and BufferedOutputStream?
I have made a PrintWriter and BufferedOutputStream on the same socket that my client uses to connect to the server. I start by sending some string with the PrintWriter followed by some bytes with the BufferedOutputStream.
I does not work, so I would like to know if its not possible to connect these to out channels to the same socket.On the Client side (the PrintWriter's second argument is true so it should autoflush):
out = new PrintWriter(socket.getOutputStream(),true);
String s = "sally";
byte[]sb = s.getBytes();
int len1 = sb.length;
out.println(len1 + "");
outBytes = new BufferedOutputStream(socket.getOutputStream());
outBytes.write(sb, 0, len1);
outBytes.flush();on the serverside:
in = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(
socket.getInputStream()));
inBytes = new BufferedInputStream(socket.getInputStream());
int len1 = Integer.valueOf(in.readLine()).intValue();
byte[] clientPub = new byte[len1];
System.out.println("test");
inBytes.read(clientPub, 0, len1);
System.out.println("test22");test22 never gets printed so it must be inBytes.read(clientPub, 0, len1); that is blocking. But the out on the client should autoflush and I have also tried out.flush() but it does not help. -
Problem in using socket streams with encryption and decryption
Hi,
I am developing a client/server program with encryption and decryption at both end. While sending a message from client it should be encrypted and at the receiving end(server) it should be decrypted and vice versa.
But while doing so i got a problem if i use both encryption and decryption at both ends. But If i use only encryption at one (only outputstream) and decryption at other end(only inputstream) there is no problem.
Here is client/server pair of programs in which i am encrypting the outputstream of the socket in client side and decrypting the inputstream of the socket in server side.

**** I know that the CInput tries to read some header stuff thats why i used two threads for input and output.
Waiting for the reply.
Thank you.Do not ever post your code unless requested to. It is very annoying.
Try testing what key is being used. Just to test this out, build a copy of your program and loop the input and outputs together. Have them print the data stream onto the screen or a text file. Compare the 1st Output and the 2nd Output and the 1st Input with the 2nd Input and then do a static test of the chipher with sample data (same data which was outputted), then do another cipher test with the ciphertext created by the first test.
Everything should match - if it does not then follow the steps below.
Case 1: IO Loops do not match
Case 2: IO Loops match, but ciphertext 1st run does not match loop
Case 3: IO Loops match, 1st ciphertext 1st run matches, but 2nd run does not
Case 4: IO Loops match, both chiphertext runs do not match anything
Case 5: Ciphertext runs do not match eachother when decrypted correctly (outside of the test program)
Problems associated with the cases above:
Case 1: Private Key is changing on either side (likely the sender - output channel)
Case 2: Public Key is changing on either side (likely the sender - output channel)
Case 3: Private Key changed on receiver - input channel
Case 4: PKI failure, causing private key and public key mismatch only after a good combination was used
Case 5: Same as Case 4 -
Acrobat X Pro hangs when making PDF. Using on Windows 7 64. Just started hanging. Uninstalled and reinstalled. Installed update. Once it hangs, must go into crtl, alt, delete to force close.
As a debugging step, try printing to the Adobe PDF printer. If that fails, repeat with print-to-file selected. Assuming the print succeeds, open the file in Distiller to complete the creation of the PDF. If you get the PDF, then check to see if AcroTray is properly working as a background task.

I have an iMac 24" system. I just recently installed MAC OS X 10.7.4 (Lion) on my system. Since doing so, my system consistently hangs. Particularly when using iMovie and iPhoto. I have to power off my system to get it running again. Any suggestions on what I can do to address this situation.
I would first reset the SMC:
Shut down and unplug the Mac.
Keep the Mac unplugged for at least fifteen seconds.
Plug the Mac back in and do not turn it back on for at least five seconds.
Press the power button to turn the Mac back on.
Then I would reset the PRAM by rebooting the iMac while simultaneously holding the Command-Option-P-R keys until the machine restarts a second time.
Let us know if these procedures don't solve the problems.
Hope this helps -

I get hangs using plug-ins (NIK), and can't export (hangs/crashes). Anyone experiencing this?
Updated Aperture today (3.4.3) running 10.8.2. Now I get hangs using plug-ins (NIK), and can't export (hangs/crashes). Anyone experiencing this?
Andrew,
In general, I've found the Nik plug-ins to be the least problematic of all that I use. Unfortunately you haven't provided enough information so that help can be focused on your problem. So here are some of the standard steps to take.
1. Make sure you are running Nik's latest versions. There were earlier ones that didn't work properly with ML.
2. Which plug-ings are the problem?
3. Have you tried the repair/rebuild option on your Aperture database? Often what appears to be problems with a 3rd party item actually stem from some sort of fault in the database.
4. If you're really stuck do the following steps: A. Delete the Nik plug-ings. B. Repair/rebuild the database. C. Download Nik's latest versions. D. Reinstall. E. Test.
This is a generic problem solving approach that fixes many things. Also, you should examine if it is a particularly type of file or set of photos or something specific in the images you are working on. A corrupt image, for example, can produce really weird things on occasion.
Hopefully some of this is useful. If not, more detail is needed.

Since downloading Maverick I have a long hang time, computer crashes, can't use word and I can't access finder, why? Also, iTunes is horrible. While I'm listening to my music iTunes will just stop playing the song for at least 5 minutes and I can't force quit why does it do that? This is the first time I have ever felt like my iMac is just as bad as a PC and I wonder if Steve Jobs would have let the program be relase to the public with all the problems involved. No wonder Maverick was free. IT ***** BIG TIME!
Hello, vanvu.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Since you are experiencing this issue with both a wired and wireless connection only on your home network and not at other locations, this issue would related to your router. I would first recommend power cycling the router and testing the connection again. If the issue persists, try updating your routers settings per the article below.

OptionalDataException when using serialize and socket timeout
hi,
i'm using ObjectInputStream and ObjectOutputStream to send objects through a socket.
I sometimes get the following exception: OptionalDataException, with the exception message as null.
does anyone know why or how can i handle it?
i'm sure that all i'm sending is objects.yes i did.
they talk about not sending object,
or increasing the timeout to around 3 seconds.
i'm writing a program that its consept is writing diffrent objects, and 3 sec of blocking time is a lot for me.
i saw that there is a lot of confusion about this problem, and thought that we might put it to an end (plus i'll solve the problem in my program :-) ).

Hi,I am using the server socket in Java to listen on a port on a computer..
I am using the windows platform
I use ms vj++6.0
I am facing a peculiar problem.
about once in 10 messages received by my server socket,
The server socket hangs .
Hangs means it stops responding to the incoming message & so my application
is unable to take any action.
I used a port scanner & found that my server port is in a "close_wait"
state.
Can someone tell me the reason for this.
is it a problem with my server or can the client that sends the message be
also responsible for this type of an error.
Heres the code for my server
public server()
try
server = new ServerSocket(2156);
serverthread = new Thread(this);
serverthread.start();
catch(Exception e)
System.out.println("Cannot Start Thread" + e);
public synchronized void run()
try
while(true)
String line;
System.out.println("listening for the client");
fromclient = server.accept();
System.out.println("client has responded");
InputStreamReader isr = new
InputStreamReader(fromclient.getInputStream());
BufferedReader instream = new BufferedReader(isr);
PrintWriter ostream = new PrintWriter(new
BufferedOutputStream(fromclient.getOutputStream()));
System.out.println("talking to the client\n");
ostream.println("Hye Client");
ostream.println("Bye");
ostream.flush();
System.out.println("listening to the client \n");
String temp;
int count=0;
String ip="";
while((line=instream.readLine())!=null)
System.out.println(line+"\n");
if (line.equals("Bye"))
break;
if (line.equals(""))
continue;
else
System.out.println(line+"\n"); /*Print the line that has come in the
socket*/
ostream.close();
fromclient.close();
catch(Exception e)
System.out.println("Cannot listen to the client" + e);
I hope somebody can help me out .
Thanx in advance

Using slim and xfce4, something crashes on exit
I recently did a fresh install of Arch onto an older PC that I have. It's running a P4 3.06GHz, an nVidia GeForce FX 5900, and 1GB RAM. Because of the lower resources, I decided to use xfce4 and slim. I have a monitor and TV hooked up through s-video with the "seperate X screen" option. Whenever I logout of xfce (this includes, logout, reboot, shutdown), it goes to a blank black screen with a cursor at the top left and just hangs. I have slim configured to run from inittab, so it picks up after a couple seconds. However, if I run startx from console, and then logout of xfce the system just hangs and wont accept any keyboard input (including ctrl+alt+function to switch run levels). Also, if I choose to shutdown or reboot, the system will do so but the only thing I see is the blank screen until the POST. If I do a startx from console, the logout, I'm able to ssh in from my laptop, login and issue a reboot (again the screen doesn't change until the POST). Also, if I turn the "seperate x screen" option off, and just run the desktop on the monitor, it doesn't freeze. I've worked my way through a number of issues so far, but this one has me completely stumped. I'm not sure if there's something wrong with my configuration or if it's just a problem with the graphics driver. Any advice and/or help is greatly appreciated.
Here are configuration and log files:

It's running a P4 3.06GHz, an nVidia GeForce FX 5900, and 1GB RAM. Because of the lower resources, I decided to use xfce4 and slim. I have a monitor and TV hooked up through s-video with the "seperate X screen" option. Whenever I logout of xfce (this includes, logout, reboot, shutdown), it goes to a blank black screen with a cursor at the top left and just hangs. I have slim configured to run from inittab, so it picks up after a couple seconds. However, if I run startx from console, and then logout of xfce the system just hangs and wont accept any keyboard input (including ctrl+alt+function to switch run levels). Also, if I choose to shutdown or reboot, the system will do so but the only thing I see is the blank screen until the POST. If I do a startx from console, the logout, I'm able to ssh in from my laptop, login and issue a reboot (again the screen doesn't change until the POST). Also, if I turn the "seperate x screen" option off, and just run the desktop on the monitor, it doesn't freeze. I've worked my way through a number of issues so far, but this one has me completely stumped. I'm not sure if there's something wrong with my configuration or if it's just a problem with the graphics driver. Any advice and/or help is greatly appreciated.
Here are configuration and log files:

Reading large files -- use FileChannel or BufferedReader?
Question --
I need to read files and get their content. The issue is that I have no idea how big the files will be. My best guess is that most are less than 5kb but some with be huge.
I have it set up using a BufferedReader, which is working fine. It's not the fastest thing (using readLine() and StringBuffer.append()), but so far it's usable. However, I'm worried that if I need to deal with large files, such as a PDF or other binary, BufferedReader won't be so efficient if I do it line by line. (And will I run into issues trying to put a binary file into a String?)
I found a post that recommended FileChannel and ByteBuffer, but I'm running into a java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException when trying to get the byte[] from ByteBuffer.
File f = new File(binFileName);
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(f);
FileChannel fc = fis.getChannel();
// Get the file's size and then map it into memory
int sz = (int)fc.size();
MappedByteBuffer bb = fc.map(FileChannel.MapMode.READ_ONLY, 0, sz);
fc.close();
String contents = new String(bb.array()); //code blows up
Thanks in advance.If all you are doing is reading data I don't think you're going to get much faster than InfoFetcher

Problem trying to read an SSL server socket stream using readByte().
Hi I'm trying to read an SSL server socket stream using readByte(). I need to use readByte() because my program acts an LDAP proxy (receives LDAP messages from an LDAP client then passes them onto an actual LDAP server. It works fine with normal LDAP data streams but once an SSL data stream is introduced, readByte just hangs! Here is my code.....
help!!! anyone?... anyone?
1. SSL Socket is first read into " InputStream input"
public void run()
Authorization auth = new Authorization();
try {
InputStream input = client.getInputStream();
while (true)
{ StandLdapCommand command;
try
command = new StandLdapCommand(input);
Authorization t = command.get_auth();
if (t != null )
auth = t;
catch( SocketException e )
{ // If socket error, drop the connection
Message.Info( "Client connection closed: " + e );
close( e );
break;
catch( EOFException e )
{ // If socket error, drop the connection
Message.Info( "Client connection close: " + e );
close( e );
break;
catch( Exception e )
//Way too many of these to trace them!
Message.Error( "Command not processed due to exception");
close( e );
break;
//continue;
processor.processBefore(auth, command);
try
Thread.sleep(40); //yield to other threads
catch(InterruptedException ie) {}
catch (Exception e)
close(e);
2 Then data is sent to an intermediate function
from this statement in the function above: command = new StandLdapCommand(input);
public StandLdapCommand(InputStream in) throws IOException
message = LDAPMessage.receive(in);
analyze();
Then finally, the read function where it hangs at "int tag = (int)din.readByte(); "
public static LDAPMessage receive(InputStream is) throws IOException
* LDAP Message Format =
* 1. LBER_SEQUENCE -- 1 byte
* 2. Length -- variable length = 3 + 4 + 5 ....
* 3. ID -- variable length
* 4. LDAP_REQ_msg -- 1 byte
* 5. Message specific structure -- variable length
DataInputStream din = new DataInputStream(is);
int tag = (int)din.readByte(); // sequence tag// sequence tagI suspect you are actually getting an Exception and not tracing the cause properly and then doing a sleep and then getting another Exception. Never ever catch an exception without tracing what it actually is somewhere.
Also I don't know what the sleep is supposed to be for. You will block in readByte() until something comes in, and that should be enough yielding for anybody. The sleep is just literally a waste of time.
