The problem is that JSPs use HttpServletResponse.getWriter (because JSPs
are used to produce text output) while the servlet you write uses
HttpServletRequest.getOutputStream. The two are incompatible for the
same request, and getWriter has already been called, to getOutputStream
fails.

You have a couple of options:

* Write another version of OpenFile called OpenTextFile or whatever
* Modify OpenFile to try getOutputStream first, then getWriter
* Put a special flag in the request, and have OpenFile detect that flag
~  to determine whether getWriter or getOutputStream should be called

If you want to use Writers instead of Streams, you should probably open
your file using a Reader instead of a Stream as well.

Hope that helps,
