java.net.URL not opening connection with the same mid tier

[chandra sekhar mahankali]

Hi,

we are trying to connect to an url through the following code.

URL lmsUrl = new URL(_applet.getLMSUrl());
URLConnection conn = lmsUrl.openConnection();

The url we are trying to connect has a load balancing setup(round robin) containing four mid tiers. we are unable to get the response from the same mid tier as the request has gone to with the following java versions.
1.5.0.13 or later but its working for lesser versions in 1.5
Is this a bug with the java version? Or am i doing some thing wrong
pl. suggest.
Thanks in advance.

Welcome to JavaRanch.

So the request goes to exactly the same host from where the HTML page containing the applet came from?

What does "unable to get the response" mean? If a request is sent, then there will be a response or an error message. Check the Java Console for errors.
