Cannot write URLConnection because of doOutput

Question

I\'ve asked a question here and I\'ve fixed my problem thanks to an user. This is the code I am using at the moment.

void UploadToDatabase() throws MalformedURLE         


        

Answer 1

The problem lies on this line:

WritableByteChannel rbc = Channels.newChannel(website.openConnection().getOutputStream());

You will need to set doOutput to true for this to work. Here's how:

URLConnection urlc = website.openConnection();
urlc.setDoOutput(true);
WritableByteChannel rbc = Channels.newChannel(urlc.getOutputStream());
