Hi all..

I'm using jsp & tomcat4.
The application collects user data.
I have a bean that contains all relevant data.
I am using serializtion to make the data persistant.
In order to restore the state of the bean I use:

<% URL resourceUrl =
application.getResource("/resource/SerializedBean.ser"); %>

// returns a valid url: jndi:/localhost/resource/MemberBean.ser

<jsp:useBean  id="registrationBean" scope="application"
type="Package.class" beanName="Package.SerializedBean" >
<%
 // the saved version is restored if there is no instance of this bean.
 boolean bool = registrationBean.restoreState(registrationBean,
resourceUrl);
 out.print("restored state: " + bool); //for debugging purposes..
%>
</jsp:useBean>

When saving the state with:

registrationBean.saveState(resourceUrl);

I get the following exception report:

Starting service Tomcat-Netbeans
Apache Tomcat/4.0.4
restoring state : jndi:/localhost/resource/MemberBean.ser
saving state to : jndi:/localhost/resource/MemberBean.ser
can do output: true */ SEE METHOD CALL BELOW /*
java.net.UnknownServiceException: protocol doesn't support output
        at java.net.URLConnection.getOutputStream(URLConnection.java:679)
                etc...

the code of the save state method is below:

public synchronized void saveState(URL url){
        this.url = url;
        try {
        URLConnection uConn = url.openConnection();
        uConn.setDoOutput(true);
        if (debug)
            { System.out.println("can do output: " + uConn.getDoOutput()); }

                OutputStream out = uConn.getOutputStream();
            ObjectOutputStream s = new ObjectOutputStream(out);
            s.writeObject(this);
            s.flush();
            s.close();
         uConn.setDoOutput(false);
        }
        catch(FileNotFoundException fnfex){ fnfex.printStackTrace(); }
        catch(IOException ioe){ ioe.printStackTrace(); }
    }

Can anybody shed some light on this problem?
What other means are availiable to make beans persistant within a Servlet
Container?

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thank you
CARL WOERMANN
