Answer 1

I couldn't get your exact problem to replicate on my own computer using your code and localhost-connections, but after reading about "BufferedReader.readLine() throwing java.net.SocketException: Software caused connection abort: recv failed" in several different pages, I believe this is related to your network. The connection seems to be terminated due to TCP timeout or data corrupted in the transmission.

If this happens over localhost-connections (server and client in same computer), it could be a faulty memory, otherwise you might have a broken nic, router or cable somewhere along the line. If you're using wireless, they can be pretty unreliable.

Answer 2

This error occurs exactly due to problem in network. It comes when connection with your database failed and and application is unable to retrieve the required data. The problem may be in your connection wire or with the modem. Try changing them. Otherwise check your database access in sql developer etc if its working fine, there could be a problem in transaction timeout.

Answer 3

There are two possibilities:

• The database is down, or
• The database server's IP address duplicates an existing server's IP address on the network
