HttpServletResponse

[sridevisd]

I am trying to do a
response.sendRedirect("http://"+"/servlet/MyServlet");

I get an error:
java.io.IOException: Response has been closed

I try to do the same in a different servlet it works.
Could anyone tell me why I get this error.

Thanks in advance
Sridevi

It looks like the response writer has been closed.
You should also check that the response has not been committed, as
defined in the HttpServletResponse documentation.

Well, that is probably because you're trying to redirect to the URL

http:///servlet/MyServlet

That doesn't work.

If /servlet/MyServlet is served at the same hostname as the page you're
redirecting from, for example if you're redirecting from
http://abc.def.org/some.jsp to http://abc.def.org/servlet/MyServlet, then you
can do this:

response.sendRedirect("/servlet/MyServlet")

otherwise you need to include the full URL.
