connecting to a servlet from a midlet using an http connection

**emanHassan** · 2006-06-17, 18:27

Hi every body,
i have a very serious problem here, i use http connections to call a servlet from a midlet and it works just fine on the emulator. i deployed the midlet and when i run it it requests to select the access point for the connection, so, i choose 'vodafone WAP', the problem is, this is what i get:

<?xml version='1.0' ?><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC '-//WAPFORUM//DTD XHTML Mobile 1.0// EN"http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/xhtml-mob

by the way i use j2me, nokia 6630, my network operator is 'vodafone' and this is the code i use to open the http connection:

StringBuffer buffer;
try {
StreamConnection connection = (StreamConnection) Connector.open("http://10.1.33.5:8084/Web_Tier/MobHttpTransceiver");

InputStream in = connection.openInputStream();
buffer = new StringBuffer();

int ch;
while (( ch = in.read()) != -1)
{
if (ch != '\n')
buffer.append((char) ch);

else{
}
get_textBox1().setString(buffer.toString());
}

} catch (Exception ex) {
//get_textBox1().setString("exception: "+ex.getClass());
}

any one who can help ?!

I guess that the server with the name http://10.1.33.5:8084 ist just not visible from the internet. Your phone use the vodaphone gateway, which is located at vodafone, to access the internet. It has no chance to access your local network or your PC.

If this is not the problem, uncomment the following line:

} catch (Exception ex) {
//get_textBox1().setString("exception: "+ex.getClass());
}

and tell us what exception you get.

Hi,
thank u for the fase reply.
the exception is 'java.lang.IllegalArgumentException', but, what is this xml document any way? and why it comes out although my server is visible through the internet? is it a configuration problem?
thanks in advance,
