An exception occurs while i try to view a mpeg file by using servlets.the mpeg file resides on the server.i used res.setContentType("video/mpeg"),got an Inputstream from ServletContext, got an outputstream and wrote the bytes.
but got the Exception while downloading the file at the client.
ClientAbortException;java.net.SocketException,Connection reset by peer.
socket write exception at line .....
the line is
sos.write(bytes,0,data);
i changed the contentType as setContentType("video/quicktime"),but the file couldn't be recognized at the client.it shows blank at filetype so the user has to choose from the type of program to open the file.
i want the foll. scenario.
when the page is submitted ,the file gets downloaded automatically and can be view in the browser itself.(or the concerned the media player )
please do help me with this dilemma.
