I wanna write the code to let Client send a string to Server, Server print the string and reply a string, then Client print the string Server reply.
My Server
public class Server {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
ServerSocket ss = null;
Socket s = null;
try {
ss = new ServerSocket(34000);
s = ss.accept();
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
s.getInputStream()));
OutputStreamWriter out = new OutputStreamWriter(s.getOutputStream());
while (true) {
String string = in.readLine();
if (string != null) {
System.out.println("br: " + string);
if (string.equals("end")) {
out.write("to end");
out.flush();
out.close();
System.out.println("end");
// break;
}
}
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
s.close();
ss.close();
}
}
}
My Client:
public class Client {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Socket socket =null;
try {
socket = new Socket("localhost", 34000);
BufferedReader in =new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(socket.getInputStream()));
OutputStreamWriter out = new OutputStreamWriter(socket.getOutputStream());
String string = "";
string = "end";
out.write(string);
out.flush();
while(true){
String string2 = in.readLine();
if(string2.equals("to end")){
System.out.println("yes sir");
break;
}
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}finally{
try {
System.out.println("closed client");
socket.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}
are there some somethings wrong? if i remove the code "while(true) ..." in client class, it's OK.
you should add "\r\n" at the end of the String which write into stream.
example:
client :
string = "end";
out.write(string + "\r\n");
out.flush();
server :
out.write("to end" + "\r\n");
out.flush();
out.close();
System.out.println("end");
// break;
I don't see the server response.
You do a
System.out.println("br: " + string);
but not a
out.write(string);
out.flush();
Appand "\n" to end of the response from server.
outToClient.writeBytes(sb.toString() + "\n");
You are reading lines but you aren't writing lines. Add a newline, or call BufferedReader.newLine().

What is a NullPointerException, and how do I fix it?

Closed 5 years ago.
I'm trying to create a program where a client and server send text messages to each other (in utf-8 string format) similar to how two phones text message each other. Eventually I will need to create four lines (two to encode/decode utf-8 string on server side) (two to encode/decode utf-8 string on client side) This program uses two threads, one for the client one for the server.
Screenshot of error in mac terminal (command prompt)
There were no errors before I changed the following lines of code:
String MessageFromClientEncodedUTF8 = "";
BufferedReader BufReader1 = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(socket.getInputStream(), "UTF-8"));
socket = serverSocket.accept();
InputStream is = socket.getInputStream();
InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(is);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(isr);
String MessageFromClientDecodedFromUTF8 = BufReader1.readLine();
System.out.println("The message is currently encoded UTF-8");
byte[] bytes = MessageFromClientEncodedUTF8.getBytes("UTF-8");
String MessageFromClientDecodedUTF8 = new String(bytes, "UTF-8");
System.out.println("Message received from client (decoded utf-8): "+ MessageFromClientDecodedUTF8);
There are three files: the main function file, the server file, and the client file. When the main function file runs, if the "-l" command line argument is present, the server file will run, otherwise the client will run.

My question is: How do I change the way the strings are encoded or decoded in order to send strings to the other side or how to solve the null pointer exception error?
It is because you are trying to get the inputstream of a socket before it exists:-
BufferedReader BufReader1 = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(socket.getInputStream(), "UTF-8"));
socket = serverSocket.accept();
These two lines should be the other way around. :)
EDIT: Looking further at your code, you are creating BufReader1 (which is causing the error) and then creating br in exactly the same way, i.e. both are a BufferedReader of the socket. You only need one; having two will probably cause problems for the readers.
Apologies as I asked something similar last night, but I have narrowed my problem down. I am wondering how to make my Java TCP Socket Server read in the data sent using the printWriter(out) in the Client code from a GUI as it does from the command line stdin.
I have the following classes as an example and everything works fine until the GUI comes into the equation. The data is being sent over to the Server from the GUI as I can echo it on the server side, but it is not being read and parsed properly as the stdin is. Nothing is being sent back to the client. I have tried flushing, using different streams and adding line separators all over the place to no avail. There is also a Protocol class that handles the data on the Server side.

I'm trying to make a server/client to send text from client to server then sending back an ok message or something similar back to the client, but for some error that I can't see, either the server gets stuck right before sending the ok back to the client, or the client does not receive the message (I think it's the first one though).
Any help is appreciated.
This is the server code:
class ActiveServer extends Thread {
InputStream inStream;
OutputStream outStream;
public ActiveServer(InputStream inStream, OutputStream outStream) {
this.inStream = inStream;
this.outStream = outStream;
}
#Override
public void run() {
boolean ret = false;
try (BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(inStream));
PrintWriter writer = new PrintWriter(outStream);) {
String line = null;
while((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
String[] str = line.split(";");
line = null;
switch (str[0]) {
case "insert" : //ret = SQLOptions.insert(str[1], str[2]);
System.out.println(str[1]);
break;
}
writer.print(ret);
writer.flush();
// As far as i can see it gets stuck at the end of this while, but I don't know why.
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
public class Server {
private static final int PORT = 39165;
public static void main(String[] args) {
try (ServerSocket server = new ServerSocket(PORT);) {
System.out.println("Servidor online");
ExecutorService service = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(10);
while (true) {
Socket client = server.accept();
InetAddress ip = client.getInetAddress();
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm:ss");
Date time = new Date();
System.out.print(sdf.format(time));
System.out.println(" " + ip + " connected");
InputStream inStream = client.getInputStream();
OutputStream outStream = client.getOutputStream();
service.execute(new ActiveServer(inStream,outStream));
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
And here goes the client code:
public class Telnet {
static Console console = System.console();
public static void connect(String ip, String port) {
try(Socket socket = new Socket(ip, Integer.parseInt(port));
PrintWriter writer = new PrintWriter(socket.getOutputStream());
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(socket.getInputStream()));) {
String msg = null;
while(true) {
msg = console.readLine();
writer.println(msg);
writer.flush();
if (msg.equals(".quit")) {
System.out.println("Exiting...");
break;
}
String input = reader.readLine();
System.out.println(input);
}
} catch (NumberFormatException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (UnknownHostException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
if(args.length < 2) {
err.println("Telnet <ip> <port>");
return;
}
if (console == null) {
err.println("A console is not available");
return;
}
connect(args[0], args[1]);
}
}
On the server side, you write the response without a terminating newline:
writer.print(ret);
But on the client side, you read until the end of line:
String input = reader.readLine();
The documentation for BufferedReader#readLine says:
Reads a line of text. A line is considered to be terminated by any one of a line feed ('\n'), a carriage return ('\r'), or a carriage return followed immediately by a linefeed.
Thus, the client will wait forever for the newline sequence which the server will never send.
I'm new to the world of Java and now I'm trying to create a socket program. I created a server and a client, but they didn't seem to work. Now I post the code.
This is the server:
import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;
public class TCPCmdServer
{
public int port;
public ServerSocket server;
TCPCmdServer (int port)
{
this.port = port;
if(!createServer())
System.out.println("Cannot start the server");
else System.out.println("Server running on port " + port);
}
public boolean createServer ()
{
try
{
server = new ServerSocket(port);
}
catch (IOException e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
return false;
}
return true;
}
public static void main (String [] args)
{
TCPCmdServer tcp = new TCPCmdServer(5000);
boolean flag = true;
while (flag)
{
try
{
Socket socket = tcp.server.accept();
System.out.println("A client has connected");
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(socket.getInputStream()));
BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(socket.getOutputStream()));
out.write("Welcome on the server... type the commands you like, type END to close me\n");
out.flush();
String cmd = in.readLine();
System.out.println("Recieved: " + cmd);
if (cmd.equals("END"))
{
System.out.println("Shutting down server...");
socket.close();
in.close();
out.close();
flag = false;
}
else
{
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
BufferedReader pRead = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
String line;
while ((line = pRead.readLine()) != null)
{
System.out.println(line);
out.write(line + "\n");
out.flush();
}
}
}
catch (IOException ex)
{
ex.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}
And this is the client:
import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;
public class TCPCmdClient
{
public Socket socket;
public int port;
public String ip;
TCPCmdClient (String ip, int port)
{
this.ip = ip;
this.port = port;
if (!createSocket())
System.out.println("Cannot connect to the server. IP: " + ip + " PORT: " + port);
else System.out.println("Connected to " + ip + ":" + port);
}
public boolean createSocket ()
{
try
{
socket = new Socket(ip, port);
}
catch (IOException e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
return false;
}
return true;
}
public static void main (String [] args)
{
TCPCmdClient client = new TCPCmdClient("127.0.0.1", 5000);
try
{
BufferedReader sysRead = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(client.socket.getInputStream()));
BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(client.socket.getOutputStream()));
String response = in.readLine();
System.out.println("Server: " + response);
boolean flag = true;
while (flag)
{
System.out.println("Type a command... type END to close the server");
String cmd = sysRead.readLine();
out.write(cmd + "\n");
out.flush();
if (cmd.equals("END"))
{
client.socket.close();
sysRead.close();
in.close();
out.close();
flag = false;
} else
{
String outputline;
while ((outputline = in.readLine()) != null)
System.out.println(outputline);
}
}
}
catch (IOException ex)
{
ex.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

I believe the problem is with the input and output streams, but I can't understand why they don't work.
The expected behavior is as follows: The client connects to the server then the server send response. The client asks the user to insert a MS-DOS command (or a "END" command), the command is then sent to the server. The server executes the command on the computer where it is running (in case the command is END it closes the connection). Then the server sends the result of the command to the client, and the client displays it to the user.
[/old]
Now the only problem is that I have to close and re-open a client any time I like to execute a new command
In your server code, you are creating a new socket for every command you received from the client. That is why you have to open a new client every time you want to send a command to the server. To correct this, first you need to remove the while(flag) loop in server code. Then you can use the following to establish the connection to the client and send and receive command and output between them.
Socket socket = tcp.server.accept();
System.out.println("A client has connected");
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(socket.getInputStream()));
BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(socket.getOutputStream()));
out.write("Welcome on the server... type the commands you like, type END to close me\n");
out.flush();
try {
while(!(cmd = in.readLine()).equals("END")) {
System.out.println("Recieved: " + cmd);
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
BufferedReader pRead = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
String line;
while ((line = pRead.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(line);
out.write(line + "\n");
out.flush();
}
}
} catch (IOException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
} finally {
System.out.println("Shutting down server...");
socket.close();
in.close();
out.close();
}
In TCPCmdServer.java, try changing
out.write("Welcome on the server... type the commands you like, type END to close me");
to
out.write("Welcome on the server... type the commands you like, type END to close me\n");
out.flush();
Also, change
out.write(buffer.toString());
to
out.write(buffer.toString() + "\n");
out.flush();
In TCPCmdClient.java
change
out.write(cmd);
to
out.write(cmd + "\n");
out.flush();
response = in.readLine();
System.out.println("Server: " + response);

The Exception starts:
java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect
The expanded output looks like:
I'm somewhat confused as to why you attempt to open a new socket (do you intend for this to be sent back to the client?) based on a string you read from a file. Perhaps
s = new Socket(strLine, 44441);
prnt = new PrintWriter(s.getOutputStream(),true);
should be:
prnt = new PrintWriter(client.getOutputStream(),true);
As currently I don't see where you are sending anything back to the client.
Edit: ok try something like the following:
static final ArrayList<ClientWorker> connectedClients = new ArrayList<ClientWorker>();
class ClientWorker implements Runnable {
private Socket socket;
private PrintWriter writer;
ClientWorker(Socket socket) {
this.socket = socket;
try {
this.writer = new PrintWriter(socket.getOutputStream(), true);
} catch (IOException ex) { /* do something sensible */ }
}
public void run() {
synchronized(connectedClients) {
connectedClients.add(this);
}
BufferedReader in = null;
try {
in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(socket.getInputStream()));
} catch (IOException e) { /* do something sensible */ }
while (true) {
try {
String line = in.readLine();
if (line != null && line != "") {
synchronized (connectedClients) {
for (int i = 0; i < connectedClients.size(); ++i){
ClientWorker client = connectedClients.get(i);
client.writer.println(line);
}
}
}
} catch (IOException e) { /* do something sensible */ }
}
}
}
