You are getting NullPointerException as the "output" is null when the while loop ends. You can collect the output in some buffer and then use it, something like this-

    StringBuilder buffer = new StringBuilder();
    String output;
    System.out.println("Output from Server .... \n");
    while ((output = br.readLine()) != null) {
        System.out.println(output);
        buffer.append(output);
    }
    output = buffer.toString(); // now you have the output
    conn.disconnect();
