Cannot connect to an https server

Hi,

I searched far and wide in the forum for a resolution to my problem but did not find any solution. Hence posting the problem here. Please help.

I need to make a call to an https server using a POST request from a SunOS 5.8 machine. Some parameters are to be passed to it. The server would return me back an xml that I need to process. But on execution the class just hangs and on a ^C , I get

a SocketException : Operation already in progress

Is it because I need to do any configurations at my end so as to make the call go through ? Or is there any thing wrong in my code ?

Thanks in advance. I am really looking forward to any help in this regard ssince its of a very high importance that I get it working

The code am trying out is here

import java.io.BufferedReader;

import java.io.DataInputStream;

import java.io.File;

import java.io.FileInputStream;

import java.io.FileNotFoundException;

import java.io.FileOutputStream;

import java.io.IOException;

import java.io.InputStream;

import java.io.InputStreamReader;

import java.io.PrintWriter;

import java.net.URL;

import java.net.URLConnection;

import java.util.StringTokenizer;

import javax.net.ssl.HttpsURLConnection;

private static final String BASE_URL="https://secure.xxxxx.com/ncol/test/orderdirect.asp";

try {

System.setProperty("java.protocol.handler.pkgs","javax.net.ssl");

String sURL = BASE_URL, sOut = "", line, uri = "";

StringTokenizer tok = new StringTokenizer(sURL);

String protocol = tok.nextToken(":");

String host = tok.nextToken("://");

//String sPostData = postData;

try {

uri += "/" + tok.nextToken("/");

while (tok.hasMoreTokens())

uri += "/" + tok.nextToken("/");

}

catch(Exception nsee) {

uri += "/";

}

System.out.println("protocol -"+protocol+"host = " + host + "uri = " + uri);

URL url = new URL(protocol, host, uri);

HttpsURLConnection con = (HttpsURLConnection)url.openConnection();

// inform the connection that we will send output and accept input

con.setDoInput(true);

con.setDoOutput(true);

// Don't use a cached version of URL connection.

con.setUseCaches (false);

con.setDefaultUseCaches (false);

con.setRequestMethod("POST");

con.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");

System.out.println("just before connect");

//con.connect();

System.out.println("onnect");

// define a new PrintWriter on the output stream

PrintWriter outWriter = new PrintWriter(con.getOutputStream());

outWriter.print("?"+inputData);

outWriter.close();

System.out.println("onnect");

DataInputStream input = new DataInputStream (con.getInputStream ());

String str;

while (null != ((str = input.readLine())))

{

System.out.println (str);

}

input.close ();

} catch(IOException ioe)

{

ioe.printStackTrace();

}

}

}
