Problem creatingan Inputstream from a URLconnection

[Kurapica]

Hi, all

SORRY ALL- it was my mistake, I should have put "/" before the filename

---------------------------------------------------------------------
>I have a problem creating an InputStream object here is the code :

URL url = new URL("http", "archive.ncsa.uiuc.edu", -1, "SDG/Software/Mosaic/Demo/url-primer.html");
			URLConnection urlc = url.openConnection();
			urlc.connect();
			InputStream input = urlc.getInputStream();

>I get the following exception error:

Exception in thread "main" java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 400 for URL: http://archive.ncsa.uiuc.eduSDG/Software/Mosaic/Demo/url-primer.html
	at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream(Unknown Source)
	at Url.main(Url.java:9)

>Thnx in advance

It works ok if you write the file spec right, with a leading slash:

URL url = new URL("http", "archive.ncsa.uiuc.edu", -1, "/SDG/Software/Mosaic/Demo/url-primer.html");

btw, it works fine without this statement too:

urlc.connect();
