Why I get java.net.SocketException: Connection reset

I need sent some requests to server side and get reponse, sometimes when I call specific method to run the flollowing common code, I get one error in line(addToCookieJar(connection);), any idea how this get开发者_StackOverflow社区 happened?

    URL url = new URL(providerURL);
    HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
    connection.setRequestMethod("POST");
    connection.setDoInput(true);
    connection.setDoOutput(true);
    connection.setUseCaches(false);
    connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/octet-stream");

    // We understand gzip encoding
    connection.addRequestProperty("Accept-Encoding", "gzip");

    if (cookie != null && cookieHandler != null) {
        connection.setRequestProperty("Cookie", cookie);
    }

    if (cookieHandler == null) {
        addFromCookieJar(connection);
    }

    // Send the request
    ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(connection.getOutputStream());
    oos.writeObject(remote.getName());
    oos.writeObject(m.getName()); // method name
    oos.writeObject(m.getParameterTypes()); // formal parameters
    oos.writeObject(args); // actual parameters
    oos.flush();
    oos.close();

    if (cookieHandler == null) {
        cookieJar.put(new URI(providerURL), connection.getHeaderFields());
    }

This error indicates that the remote side has closed the connection while your side was still trying to read from it. You should check if

• there is a problem on the server (check it's logs) or
• you are trying to read more data than the server supplies

What does the addToCookieJar method do? Passing in the connection object might be a problem to this method since you close the OutputStream obtained from the connection. Are you by any chance trying to retrieve and operate on the output stream object in the addToCookieJar method?
