No, I don't open this URLConnection from the servlet. I open it from the client, and it is not null, when I'm trying to access it - I think NullPointerException will occur if it is null. >>> could you please post the servlet code? I think it is not necessary to post the servlet's code, because the problem appears in client. Instead, I'll post the client's part where the ConnectException occurs: ----- URL url = new URL(myReq.getURL()); URLConnection conn = url.openConnection(); if (myReq.getData() != null) { String data = (String) myReq.getData(); conn.setDoOutput(true); PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(conn.getOutputStream()); out.println(data); out.flush(); out.close(); } myReq.getCallback().read(new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(conn.getInputStream()))); ----- ConnectException occurs at the sixth line from the code snipped. ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
