multithreaded java web server

I am trying to implement a multi threaded java webserver. Here is my main: ``` import java.net.*; public class Main { public static void main(String argv[]) throws Exception{ ServerSocket welcomeSocket = new ServerSocket(6790); while(true){ System.out.println("Waiting..."); Socket cSock = welcomeSocket.accept(); System.out.println("Accepted connection : " + cSock); Server a = new Server(cSock); a.start(); } } } ``` here is my thread class: ``` import java.io.*; import java.net.*; import java.util.Scanner; public class Server extends Thread{ Socket cSock; Server(Socket cSock){ //constructor this.cSock = cSock; } public void run(){ try{ String request; Scanner inFromClient = new Scanner(cSock.getInputStream()); DataOutputStream outToClient = new DataOutputStream(cSock.getOutputStream()); request = inFromClient.nextLine(); System.out.println("Received: "+request); //trimming URL to extract file name String reqMeth = request.substring(0, 3); String reqURL = request.substring(5, (request.lastIndexOf("HTTP/1.1"))); String reqProto = request.substring(request.indexOf("HTTP/1.1")); System.out.println("Request Method:\t" +reqMeth +"\nRequest URL:\t" +reqURL+ "\nRequest Protocol: " +reqProto); //passing file name to open File localFile = new File(reqURL.trim()); byte [] mybytearray = new byte [(int)localFile.length()]; FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(localFile); BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(fis); bis.read(mybytearray,0,mybytearray.length); //sending file to stream System.out.println("Sending..."); outToClient.write(mybytearray,0,mybytearray.length); outToClient.flush(); outToClient.close(); }catch(Exception e){ System.out.println(e); } } } ``` By logic, with each request the server gets, it will create a new thread. Each thread is associated with a particular request. My problem is when i request for a file (eg. index.html), the server gets the request, but the file does not load, the browser keeps on loading. i figured out that each thread is started but it does not complete. here is an output: ``` Waiting... Accepted connection : Socket[addr=/192.168.0.10,port=58957,localport=6790] Waiting... Accepted connection : Socket[addr=/192.168.0.10,port=58958,localport=6790] Waiting... Received: GET /html/index.html HTTP/1.1 Request Method: GET Request URL: html/index.html Request Protocol: HTTP/1.1 Accepted connection : Socket[addr=/192.168.0.10,port=59093,localport=6790] Waiting... Received: GET /index.html HTTP/1.1 Request Method: GET Request URL: index.html Request Protocol: HTTP/1.1 ``` what am i doing wrong? and is there any better way? note that i did only one thread to test request from only one IP, and will build on than once this is solved.
