java.net.SocketException: sendto failed: ECONNRESE

Question

I try to use this code to connect to server for uploading an image.

    try {
        url = new URL(requestURL);

        HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
        conn.setRequestProperty("connection", "close");
        System.setProperty("http.keepAlive", "false");
        conn.setReadTimeout(15000);
        conn.setConnectTimeout(15000);
        conn.setRequestMethod("POST");
        conn.setDoInput(true);
        conn.setDoOutput(true);

        OutputStream os = conn.getOutputStream();
        BufferedWriter writer = new BufferedWriter(
                new OutputStreamWriter(os, "UTF-8"));
        writer.write(getPostDataString(postDataParams));

        writer.flush();
        writer.close();
        os.close();
        int responseCode = conn.getResponseCode();

        if (responseCode == HttpsURLConnection.HTTP_OK) {
            BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(conn.getInputStream()));
            sb = new StringBuilder();
            String response;
            while ((response = br.readLine()) != null){
                sb.append(response);
            }
        }
    } catch (IOException e){
        if (e.getMessage().indexOf("Connection reset by peer") > 0);
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

I always get SocketException, like above.

UploadUI contains this code snippet on line 108:

String result = rh.sendPostRequest(UPLOAD_URL,data);

where rh is stand for RequestHandler. It should post picture's details in a SQL database, but server side code seems working.

Hi am also facing the same problme.Now resolved using below code.I hope it will also help you.. try it....

Put this below code within onCreate()

 @Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_upload_documents);

    if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT > 9) {
        StrictMode.ThreadPolicy policy = new StrictMode.ThreadPolicy.Builder()
                .permitAll().build();
        StrictMode.setThreadPolicy(policy);
    }

   //Statement or Controls Declaration or your code

}
