In my client server application, it is able to receive commands and give the results back. The problem occures when I try to download a file from server side. After entering the download command, the server prompt shows this error,
java.net.SocketException: socket closed
Image:
Otherwise the programing is working fine, also it is able to download the file into client side.
NB The possible reason I assuem is about the closing of outputSteram, (in my ServerSide project) that may not has been done in the right way.
My complete working code:
ServerSide:

}

boolean exists = false;
for (File file : files) {
if (filename.equals(file.getName())) {
exists = true;
}
}
return exists;
}
public ServerSide(int port) {
// create a server socket
try {
serverSocket = new ServerSocket(port);

System.out.println("Error in server socket creation.");
System.exit(1);
}
while (true) {
try {
socket = serverSocket.accept();
outputToClient = new PrintWriter(socket.getOutputStream());

The problem, I think, is that in after processing that command (GET
) you are closing the server socket in that os.close()
call. Realize that both os
outputToClient
and inputFromClient
depend on the same server socket. Thus, when closing os
you are impacting the other two streams. Then, after serving the GET
request you server loop goes to the beginning and tries to run inputFromClient.readLine()
but the underlying socket has been closed.
