O'Reilly's Java Servlet Programming by Jason Hunter : Chapter 10 Applet-Server Communication ----- the DaytimeServlet example. ----------------- I have implemented the example code where the applet is to get the date/time from the servlet via 4 different types of request mechanisms (I omitted the 5th using RMI). The code is compiled and the applet does show the gui. None of the times are showing up. I am really concerned about the "connection refused" error. The applet is supposed to be able to connect to its server, right? What is the trick? I get the following error messages (abbrev of all messages seen in the Java console)======= 1)DaytimeApplet.getDateUsingHttpText error=> java.io.FileNotFoundException: localhost:80//servlets/DaytimeServlet 2)DaytimeApplet.getDateUsingHttpObject error=> java.io.FileNotFoundException: localhost:80//servlets/DaytimeServlet?format=object 3)DaytimeApplet.getDateUsingSocketText error=> java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused 4)DaytimeApplet.getDateUsingSocketObject error=> java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused
The local host is both the server and the client.
