WL6.1 + IIS, request.getInputStream is not working. Please help.

Question

I'm running IIS + WL 6.1 and in my servlet code, when I use request.getInputStream(),
it has nothing in the input stream
for e.x.
InputStream istream = request.getInputStream();
BufferedInputStream buf = new BufferedInputStream(istream);
byte[] b = new byte[1024];
while(buf.available()>0){
buf.read(b);
System.out.println("printing:"+b);
buf.available is not greater than zero.
But when I tried with just WL6.1, everything is fine.
I'm using forward path to forward my request.
Please help.
thanks
Vijay

Answer 1

Too much code to review in depth.
Couple of things that jumped out at me
1 - request.sendRedirect sent at the end. You should do any request forward/redirects as soon as possible in the jsp - before your response gets committed. It is illegal to forward/redirect after a response has been committed. That might explain the errors.
2 - As a suggestion, view source on the page, and save the file as html. Or use the functionality to "save a webpage" to your local computer. Try loading that HTML page in all the browsers. That should help you diagnose is it the HTML code, or is it the JSP side of things that is broken.
hope this helps,
