java.net.SocketException: Operation timed out: connect:could be due to invalid addres

Hi,

I'm tring to read a physical file from as400 box using jt400.jar on windows through java program. I've double checked the path of file. because I can retrieve this same file through IFSTextFileInputStream object. But when I try to read the file by SequentialFile object, I receive this exception:

java.net.SocketException: Operation timed out: connect:could be due to invalid address

Here is my code snippet :

try{

AS400 as400 = new AS400(<server-name> :wink: ;  
as400.connectService(AS400.RECORDACCESS);
QSYSObjectPathName filename = newQSYSObjectPathName(<LIBRARY>, <FILE>, <MEMBER>, "MBR");
SequentialFile file = new SequentialFile(as400,filename.getPath()); 
// Retrieve the record format for the file
AS400FileRecordDescription recordDescription = newAS400FileRecordDescription(as400, filename.getPath());
RecordFormat[] format =recordDescription.retrieveRecordFormat();
file.setRecordFormat(format[0]);
file.open(SequentialFile.READ_ONLY, 100,SequentialFile.COMMIT_LOCK_LEVEL_NONE);
Record data = file.readNext();
 

// Loop while there are records in the file (while we have not
        // reached end-of-file).
         while (data != null)
            {
               desc = (String) data.getField(1);
               data = file.readNext();
            }
 
   } catch(DocumentException de) {
System.out.println(de.getMessage());
de.printStackTrace();
System.exit(0);
} catch(IOException ioe) {
System.out.println(ioe.getMessage());
ioe.printStackTrace();
System.exit(0);
} catch(Exception ioe) {
System.out.println(ioe.getMessage());
ioe.printStackTrace();
System.exit(0);
}

Do I need to check any configuration setting on the PC? I've also tried to run this job without any firewall intruption but still it shows the same error.


Thanks,
Suresh
