HttpUrlConnection.openConnection fails second time

Question

I know this issue should be fixed with System.setProperty("http.keepAlive", "false"); before openConnection, but that didn't work to me. First try on this code works, second one fails. Even if i try this request after less than 5 seconds, it also works. If i wait more than that, it fails again This is my code: ``` System.setProperty("http.keepAlive", "false"); HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection) mURL.openConnection(); conn.setUseCaches(false); conn.setRequestProperty("Connection","Keep-Alive"); conn.setRequestProperty("User-Agent", useragent); conn.setConnectTimeout (30000) ; conn.setDoOutput(true); conn.setDoInput(true); consumer.sign(conn); InputSource is = new InputSource(conn.getInputStream()); ``` I get the exception on last line: ``` java.io.IOException: Write error: I/O error during system call, Broken pipe W/System.err( 2164): at org.apache.harmony.xnet.provider.jsse.OpenSSLSocketImpl.nativewrite(Native Method) W/System.err( 2164): at org.apache.harmony.xnet.provider.…

Accepted Answer

I solved the problem. Here I leave you the code, in case it might be helpful for someone. Basically I see a trend on Google for using HttpClient/HttpGet instead of HttpUrlConnection. So I tried with those classes, and everything worked:

```
final HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
final HttpGet conn = new HttpGet(mURL.toString());

OAuthConsumer consumer = mOAuthManager.getPostConsumer();
consumer.sign(conn);
HttpResponse response = client.execute(conn);
InputSource is = new InputSource(response.getEntity().getContent());
```
