Java Servlet :: CharConversionException During Post Method
Feb 26, 2013
XML request message using HTTP POST is received by the Servlet interface. While we are reading and trying to parse the InputStreamObject, we are getting the following error message.
doPost java.io.CharConversionException: Characters larger than 4 bytes are not supported: byte 0x8e implies a length of more than 4 bytes
It looks like we are receiving some invalid Non-ASCII characters in the XML message.
The above error is thrown intermittently. Whenever we have this CharConversionException, the servlet gets corrupted and it impacts few good xml messages that follows after the error.
I need to know the following:
1. How to fix this exception and skip the bad message?
2. Is it possible to log the entire xml message in the catch block, whenever we have this exception?
NOTE: we tried different ways, not able to print the xml message, as the inputstream seems to be closed/null, when it reaches the catch block.
Tried the below code , but the servlet process/thread hungs and throws the below error:
Thread "WebContainer : 3" (00000028) has been active for 667781 milliseconds and may be hung. There is/are 1 thread(s) in total in the server that may be hung.
Below is the code snippet:
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
response.setContentType("text/xml");
request.setCharacterEncoding("ISO-8859-1");
OutputStream out = response.getOutputStream();
InputStream inputStream=null;
[Code] ....
Issue of either fixing/overcoming the actual exception and printing out the entire xml message(bad one) in ours log during the catch block.
currently I am doing my java web application project ,and it has following steps 1) Upload the txt files 2) java servlet gets the txt file's url , read the data and do the calculation 3) pass the results
I almost finished the second step , and working on the first step .Since there are so many input files at a given time , i have to use drag and drop method to get the file's location.how to pass file's path to servlet.( servlet code can read the data from the given txt file path )software used - tomcat and netbeans 8.0
Is it possible to get data directly from request object in service method of servlet than why it is not possible to write directly into response object through service method instead of this we have to take PrintWriter or ServletOutputStream class object....
I have an application and I would like it to send a file to a web page using POST method.
I've found the HttpClient from Apache, but I had no luck. All the tutorials and samples I can find on the net are for 3.x. I've tried adopting the samples with the HttpClient 4.1 docs, but I failed.
I have a target url of a page and source file path. I get the basic idea of what needs to happen, I am just finding it hard to implement it.
I am developing an app with a Java Servlet backend, and I am trying to get the Async call (AsyncTask - Android Developers) to get my response message Synced with the rest of the client and being able use this information wherever I want. Without a callback method, when from the caller class I use the commands:
ServletPostAsyncTask s = new ServletPostAsyncTask(); s.execute(new Pair<Context, String>(ListViewPrenota.this, "tours")); Tours ttours = s.tours; Tour tour = ttours.getTours().get(0);
I receive a NullPointerException pointing to the third line Tours ttours = s.tours;, since the s.execute() method doesn't wait for the rest of the lines to get executed.To solve this I thought about implementing a callback method with interfaces in Java, but I am not sure on how to do it. For example, what class does have to implement the interface, the ServletPostAsyncTask or the caller class?
Now I am trying to run this jsp, it will be translated into servlet. When i checked the generated servlet I found both the above code snippet(scriplet and expression) came in to _jspService method. But in the internet and in many other book i found that scriplet and expression portions will come in the doGet/doPost method (which will be called from jspservice).
So any specific reason why in this case it went in to jspservice method (though I am getting desired output)? I am using tomcat 6.
I have a situation to load data while JSF page loads. Also have a filter which populates user information from http request.
I was expecting the filter first to populate the user information and in the managed bean get method to verify the user information and get the data (from database). But in this case i see the managed bean get method is invoked before filter populates user information and i get null pointer exception because the user information is null.
I had to work around to get the user information from FacesContext in the managed bean get method because the user information wasn't available. Is there a way to make sure the filter is invoked first?
Modify the program in Assign4 to synchronize access to the instance variable, balance. Save the program as SyncBank.java. Because balance is a double and not an object, it cannot be used as the monitor. Use synchronized methods or synchronized blocks of code as appropriate. Simultaneously test two threads as was done in Assign4. Because the threads can complete too quickly to determine if they are interfering with each other, delay the adding of a deposit by inserting the following code within the synchronized block or method:
Using Eclipse I have imported a WAR with source. I have exported that project as a new war and it ran fine. I then added my own package and exported the war again. The jar file does not show up in /WEB-INF/lib folder. When I deploy the war on a tomcat server it barfs the following error:
Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.CannotLoadBeanClassException: Cannot find class [com.sharpline.fields.form.fields.TextAreaFormType] for bean with name 'com.sharpline.fields.form.fields.TextAreaFormType#53c37' defined in ServletContext resource [WEB-INF/activiti-standalone-context.xml]; nested exception is java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
[Code] .....
It looks to me like my class (jar) is missing in the final war. How do I resolve this?
Actually I am working on java ee6 web application i tried to set value and max age for the cookie...but I was unable to set maxage what ever the max age value i give .it shows as -1.but my browser accepts and stores cookie.
using HttpServlet methods. What I want to do is to delay an HttpServletResponse. I set up some response.setHeader but then I want to wait a while after setting other values as the length of data to send and the content itself.
I tried to do that in 2 ways:
1. by using Thread.sleep() - in this case even with sleep of 100 ms the response seems to be lost.
2. by response.wait(TIME) - in this case it will never reach the block after wait, whatever TIME value I use.
In reference to the book "Head First Servlets and JSP, 2nd edition", chapter-3(), page-81, the command to compile the servlet file to the desired location is
(from the same directory as can be confirmed from the attachment of screenshot of error). this code is in accordance to the location of the respective files in my system, in particular the servlet-api.jar file.
After doing this, my computer is showing the error : file not found.
How do I resolve this? Actually, I don't understand completely what this code is trying to accomplish.
I have been trying to find all day long a way to secure my .ear file from modifications made by third parties... My product is packaged as an .ear file which i send for deployment to other administrators. What i am looking for is a way to "sign" my version of .ear versus the deployed version of .ear to be sure that no modification has been made to my code...
I am working on netbeans IDE , but I understand how the application know the parametres for the connections. I understand what is a Context , specifically i understand this code about the init method
I'm trying to share an hashmap(or any other stuff to share data) between a java class and a servlet. The hashmap has to be filled into the servlet with some data and then I have to get those data from the java class.
What is the best approach? I cannot use a DTO because I have several concurrent requests to my servlet.
I have a servlet that is called from an web application and creates a Session. The sessionId of this session is passed to a swing application using the approach below:
Re: Trasnferring data from a JNLP call to swing dynamically
From my swing application I want to connect to the same servlet passing the sessionid. The purpose is to work with the same session created before.
It's not working. I'm calling the servlet from the swing application using [URL] ....
The users of our a enterprise Java based web application must access a third web application through simple HTML links and then navigate in the target application. But for security reasons and constraints the direct exchange between the browers of users and server of the other web application is not allowed. Our web application must retrieve the web page from the other application and must return it to the users's browser. Is there a convenient way to implement this requirement in J2EE ? In this case our web application must play the role of a simple reverse proxy, must request a target JSP page from other application and process it to rewrite the URLs contained in the HTML page, then send the response to user's web browser.
