I'm trying to consume a REST service with Spring facilities following this guide but I'm having a problem with the connection. I want to access with GET method the REST service
I've written this piece of code to consume the service
package pack; import static org.junit.Assert.assertTrue; import java.util.HashMap; import java.util.Map; import javax.annotation.Generated; import org.junit.Test; import org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate; import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonAnyGetter; import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonAnySetter; import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonInclude; import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonProperty; import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonPropertyOrder; public class RestUtilityTest { @JsonInclude(JsonInclude.Include.NON_NULL) @JsonPropertyOrder({ "time", "milliseconds_since_epoch", "date" }) public class DateTime { @JsonProperty("time") private String time; @JsonProperty("milliseconds_since_epoch") private Integer milliseconds_since_epoch; @JsonProperty("date") private String date; private Map<String, Object> additionalProperties = new HashMap<String, Object>(); @JsonProperty("time") public String getTime() { return time; } @JsonProperty("time") public void setTime(String time) { this.time = time; } @JsonProperty("milliseconds_since_epoch") public Integer getMilliseconds_since_epoch() { return milliseconds_since_epoch; } @JsonProperty("milliseconds_since_epoch") public void setMilliseconds_since_epoch(Integer milliseconds_since_epoch) { this.milliseconds_since_epoch = milliseconds_since_epoch; } @JsonProperty("date") public String getDate() { return date; } @JsonProperty("date") public void setDate(String date) { this.date = date; } @JsonAnyGetter public Map<String, Object> getAdditionalProperties() { return this.additionalProperties; } @JsonAnySetter public void setAdditionalProperty(String name, Object value) { this.additionalProperties.put(name, value); } } @Test public void getTest() { RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate(); DateTime datetime = restTemplate.getForObject("http://date.jsontest.com", DateTime.class); assertTrue(datetime != null); } } The application throws the following exception stack
org.springframework.web.client.ResourceAccessException: I/O error on GET request for "http://date.jsontest.com": Connection reset; nested exception is java.net.SocketException: Connection reset at org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate.doExecute(RestTemplate.java:524) at org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate.execute(RestTemplate.java:472) at org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate.getForObject(RestTemplate.java:237) at pack.RestUtilityTest.getTest(RestUtilityTest.java:95) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Unknown Source) at org.junit.runners.model.FrameworkMethod$1.runReflectiveCall(FrameworkMethod.java:47) at org.junit.internal.runners.model.ReflectiveCallable.run(ReflectiveCallable.java:12) at org.junit.runners.model.FrameworkMethod.invokeExplosively(FrameworkMethod.java:44) at org.junit.internal.runners.statements.InvokeMethod.evaluate(InvokeMethod.java:17) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner.runLeaf(ParentRunner.java:271) at org.junit.runners.BlockJUnit4ClassRunner.runChild(BlockJUnit4ClassRunner.java:70) at org.junit.runners.BlockJUnit4ClassRunner.runChild(BlockJUnit4ClassRunner.java:50) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner$3.run(ParentRunner.java:238) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner$1.schedule(ParentRunner.java:63) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner.runChildren(ParentRunner.java:236) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner.access$000(ParentRunner.java:53) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner$2.evaluate(ParentRunner.java:229) at org.junit.runners.ParentRunner.run(ParentRunner.java:309) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.junit4.runner.JUnit4TestReference.run(JUnit4TestReference.java:50) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.junit.runner.TestExecution.run(TestExecution.java:38) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.junit.runner.RemoteTestRunner.runTests(RemoteTestRunner.java:467) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.junit.runner.RemoteTestRunner.runTests(RemoteTestRunner.java:683) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.junit.runner.RemoteTestRunner.run(RemoteTestRunner.java:390) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.junit.runner.RemoteTestRunner.main(RemoteTestRunner.java:197) Caused by: java.net.SocketException: Connection reset at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(Unknown Source) at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(Unknown Source) at java.io.BufferedInputStream.fill(Unknown Source) at java.io.BufferedInputStream.read1(Unknown Source) at java.io.BufferedInputStream.read(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.parseHTTPHeader(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.parseHTTP(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.parseHTTP(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream(Unknown Source) at java.net.HttpURLConnection.getResponseCode(Unknown Source) at org.springframework.http.client.SimpleClientHttpResponse.getRawStatusCode(SimpleClientHttpResponse.java:47) at org.springframework.http.client.AbstractClientHttpResponse.getStatusCode(AbstractClientHttpResponse.java:32) at org.springframework.web.client.DefaultResponseErrorHandler.getHttpStatusCode(DefaultResponseErrorHandler.java:55) at org.springframework.web.client.DefaultResponseErrorHandler.hasError(DefaultResponseErrorHandler.java:49) at org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate.doExecute(RestTemplate.java:510) ... 26 more I tried the REST call with two different network connections so that's not a network connection problem; moreover if I visit the service from a browser I can get the response correctly.
What can be the problem?
Thank you in advance
