ObjectInputStream throwing EOFException

Here is what I am trying to do. Take an Object and put it in the Database. Then take it back out and make it into an object again. Here is how I am doing it and the error I get is below the code.

import java.io.*;

import java.awt.*;

import java.sql.*;

import java.net.*;

publicclass Test

{

publicstaticvoid main(String[] args)throws Exception

{

// get connection to database

Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver").newInstance();

Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:postgresql://********");

// make UserProperties Object, simple class containing GUI settings

UserProperties uprops =new UserProperties();

uprops.font(new Font("Verdana", Font.PLAIN, 12));

uprops.foreground(Color.black);

uprops.background(Color.lightGray);

uprops.buttonForeground(Color.black);

uprops.buttonBackground(Color.lightGray);

uprops.lookAndFeel("javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel");

// serialize uprops and put into a String

ByteArrayOutputStream byteOut =new ByteArrayOutputStream();

ObjectOutputStream outStream =new ObjectOutputStream(byteOut);

outStream.writeObject(uprops);

outStream.flush();

outStream.close();

String objectData =new String(byteOut.toByteArray());

// this works great

con.createStatement().executeUpdate("insert into userprops values ('10', '" + URLEncoder.encode(objectData) +"')");

// retrieve what we just inserted and put into a String

ResultSet rs = con.createStatement().executeQuery("select data from userprops where userID=10");

rs.first();

objectData = URLDecoder.decode(rs.getString(1));

rs.close();

con.close();

// get streams

ByteArrayInputStream byteIn =new ByteArrayInputStream(objectData.getBytes());

ObjectInputStream inStream =new ObjectInputStream(byteIn);

// EOFException gets thrown here

UserProperties obj = (UserProperties)inStream.readObject();

inStream.close();

System.out.println(obj.font());

System.out.println(obj.foreground());

System.out.println(obj.background());

System.out.println(obj.buttonForeground());

System.out.println(obj.buttonBackground());

System.out.println(obj.lookAndFeel());

}
