EOFException in readUTF

eofexception, java

Solution

You have reached the end of the stream. There is no more data to read.

Possibly your server isn't using `writeUTF(),` or you are out of sync with it. If the server is writing lines you should be using `BufferedReader.readLine().`

Problem

I am getting below `EOFException` while using `readUTF()` method, please let me know how could i overcome with this problem and also please suggest how `readUTF()` transfers socket information over the other networks ``` import java.io.*; import java.net.*; public class GreetingServer { public static void main(String args[]) { String servername =args[0]; int port = Integer.parseInt(args[1]); try { System.out.println("Server Name "+ servername +"Port"+port); Socket client = new Socket(servername,port); System.out.println("Just connected to"+ client.getRemoteSocketAddress()); OutputStream outs = client.getOutputStream(); DataOutputStream dout = new DataOutputStream(outs); dout.writeUTF("Hello From"+client.getRemoteSocketAddress()); InputStream in = client.getInputStream(); DataInputStream din = new DataInputStream(in); System.out.println("Server Says"+ din.readUTF()); client.close(); } catch (EOFException f) { f.printStackTrace(); } catch(IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } } ```
