Not able to connect to a host URL

[Deepshan Shetty]

Hi

I'm trying to connect to a URL (https://infinity.bank.co.in/AWAY) through my jsp.
But i get an exception like
exception in urlConnect-->java.net.UnknownHostException: infinity.bank.co.in

My code to connect is as follows

URL url = new URL(VerifyResponseURL.trim());
            URLConnection conn = url.openConnection();
            HttpsURLConnection urlConn = (HttpsURLConnection) conn;
            urlConn.setDoOutput(true);
            OutputStreamWriter objOstr = new OutputStreamWriter(urlConn.getOutputStream());

where VerifyResponseURL = https://infinity.bank.co.in/AWAY
and the URL is correct

Can i get a solution to this?

Regards

Are you sure the URL is correct?
For me, this URL is not opening up in Firefox.

Does not work from chrome too.

https://infinity.icicibank.co.in/BANKAWAY

This is the URL

If you are using a proxy to connect, set the proxy settings while opening the connection like below.

Proxy proxy = new Proxy(Proxy.Type.HTTP, new InetSocketAddress("<Give ip address>", <Give Port number>));		
HttpsURLConnection con = (HttpsURLConnection)url.openConnection(proxy);
