Got 200 FTP reply code but file not sent

Ive got a little problem which slowly makes me frustrated. I need to send file to FTP server over TLS, using org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPSClient and got a 200 reply code after calling storeFile() method but i don't see any result on a server.
FTP server is not running on my local host. When I do the same thing but using a Filezilla client then it's all done without any problems in both passive and active modes.
FTPSClient ftpsClient = new FTPSClient("TLS", false);
ftpsClient.connect(server, port);
boolean logged = ftpsClient.login(user, pass);
ftpsClient.enterRemotePassiveMode();
System.out.println(ftpsClient.getReplyCode());
ftpsClient.execPBSZ(0);
ftpsClient.execPROT("P");
ftpsClient.sendCommand("TYPE", "A");
System.out.println(ftpsClient.getReplyCode());
File file = new File("config.xml");
InputStream inputStream = new FileInputStream(file);
boolean done = ftpsClient.storeFile("config.xml", inputStream);
System.out.println(ftpsClient.getReplyCode());
inputStream.close();
result of this code execution is:
227
200
200
But maybe this STOR command hasn't overed in fact and this 200 code is related to command before?

If somebody is interested in solution of this problem, it was about resuming ssl session which was required by server and not handled by client. After unselecting this option on filezilla server it has started to work properly.

Java Can't Connect To PHP Web Service

Edit:
As I've just seen, it happens even with the simplest setup:
InputStream stream = new URL("http://xx.xx.xxx.xxx/GetAll.php").openStream();
Gives the same timeout error. I think I'm missing some basic configuration.
I used HTTPGet to connect to a PHP web service I have.
I saw it's deprecated so I've been trying to switch to the recommended HttpUrlConnection but with no success.
The HttpURLConnection does not seem to be able connect to the service, even though I can connect from my web browser without any problem.
My connection code:
URL myUrl = new URL("http://xx.xx.xxx.xxx/GetAll.php");
HttpURLConnection request = (HttpURLConnection)myUrl.openConnection();
request.setRequestProperty("Content-Type","text/xml;charset=UTF-8");
InputStream stream = request.getInputStream();
The GetAll.php file:
<?
require_once('MysqliDb.php'); //Helper class
$db = new MysqliDb();
//All closest events by date
$All = $db->query("SELECT * FROM Event;");
//Return in JSON
echo json_encode($All);
The result I am getting from the file:
[{"EventID":1,"StartTime":1300,"Duration":1,"EventDate":"2015-05-17","EventOrder":1,"Type":0,"Name":"\u05e2\u05d1\u05e8\u05d9\u05ea AND ENGLISH","Organiser":"Neta","Phone":"012345678","Location":"Loc","Description":"Desc"}]
Thank you,

I want to share my solution, as this has cost me hours of hair tearing.
As it turns out, "Timed out" exception has nothing to do with the code, it's a network connectivity issue. The phone I used to debug the app sometimes appears to be connected to Wifi even though it really isn't.
Anyway, if you have this exception, try checking your network connection.
Good luck!

Java app cannot communicate with RN-171 wifi module

I'm writing a Java code which have to send some data to an elecronic system and to receive some data from it through wireless. The electronic system is made of PIC32 and RN-171 module. I'm now trying to connect to the RN-171 network and to send and receive some data. Although I can in my java code set up an OutputStream and send some data to the RN-171 properly, I can't set up an InputStream and my app launches the following exception:
java.io.StreamCorruptedException: invalid stream header: 2A48454C
at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readStreamHeader(ObjectInputStream.java:804)
at java.io.ObjectInputStream.<init>(ObjectInputStream.java:299)
at TestController.sendParametersToWirelessModule(TestController.java:44)
at TestController.main(TestController.java:30)
The code in my java app, which generates the exception is:
try{
//1. creating a socket to connect to the server
requestSocket = new Socket("1.2.3.4", 2000);
System.out.println("Connected to localhost in port 2004");
//2. get Input and Output streams
out = new ObjectOutputStream(requestSocket.getOutputStream());
out.flush();
--> in = new ObjectInputStream(requestSocket.getInputStream());
//3: Communicating with the server
sendMessage(message); }
(The arrow indicates the code line which generates exception)
Is there a solution? Could anyone help me please?
Thanks

Use the following code instead:
out = requestSocket.getOutputStream();
in = requestSocket.getInputStream();
ObjectOutputStream/ObjectInputStream are used to serialize/deserialize Java objects. There is also no point in flushing the output stream before writing to it.

How to send xml to an IP and get xml response in android?

I am trying to send xml to an IP. I am doing that with following code:
String sMessage = "<SERVER><CONNECT><IP>192.168.10.14</IP><CLIENT_ID>123</CLIENT_ID></CONNECT></SERVER>";
Socket socket = new Socket("192.168.252.148", 34543);
System.out.println("socket connected---: "+socket.isConnected());
PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(socket.getOutputStream(), true);
InputStream in = socket.getInputStream();
out.println(sMessage);
byte[] buffer = new byte[in.available()];
in.read(buffer);
String rMsg = new String(buffer);
System.out.println("rMsg: "+rMsg);
out.close();
in.close();
socket.close();
rMsg is always empty. socket connection is true. Why am i not getting response back. I tried to change InputStream to BufferedInputStream but it did not help. Any idea to solve this problem by either fixing this code or by having new idea? Thanks in advance.

I'm afraid I don't really understand what you are trying to do. Your sending an XML file to an address, fair enough, but why are you automatically assuming the destination knows how to understand and create an XML formatted reply? What is the server-side implementation?
If there is such an implementation and you are not receiving data, then there must be a problem on that end, could you post code from it?

What should the server send you back? The thing is that you send an XML to the server and want to receive input at the same time from the server. But the response from the server may take some time. But I guess at this point your inputstream is closed or you are not listening to that any more. One simple solution to check that will be to put everythin in a while loop so you will see if your server answers (a bit later)... you also can listen to the NIC of your server with wireshark. Perhaps your server doesn't send anything?

Sockets in Java...?

I need to build an application which can receive data from over a network and use this data to do some unrelevant things with.
Here's a piece of code to make clear what I'm doing.
On the server side:
static Socket client = null;
static ServerSocket ss = null;
if (ss != null) {
ss.close();
}
ss = new ServerSocket(5513);
isrunning = true;
System.out.println("Waiting for client...");
client = ss.accept();
System.out.println("Client accepted.");
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(client.getInputStream()));
And the client side:
Socket client = null;
PrintWriter out = null;
try {
client = new Socket("hostname", 5513);
out = new PrintWriter(client.getOutputStream(), true);
}
Please note that this is just a piece of the code. There are no errors in the code.
After running the server-sided piece of code, it correctly waits for the client to connect.
Now here comes the problem. As soon as I try to connect from the client side, I'm getting a "connection refused"-error.
HOWEVER, I found something on the internet whoch told me to try telnetting from the client side. For example, let the server-sided IP be 192.168.1.1. So, after using this command:
telnet 192.168.1.1 5513
I actually get a connection with the server. The command will launch an empty screen, and everything I manually type in the command line will be sent to the server-side after pressing enter (checked with debugging).
So, I can manually connect to the server-side and send some data, but my code refuses to connect.
Anyone who knows what I am doing wrong?

Is this the code you're actually using?
client = new Socket("hostname", 5513);
Try changing it to:
client = new Socket("192.168.1.1", 5513);

client = new Socket("hostname", 5513);
Hostname needs to represent the IP Address you're connecting to. If you're trying to connect to yourself, it would be "localhost"
Also, the server is not listening for the client AT ALL TIMES, there must be a while loop so the server listens and accepts connections.
while (true) {
client = ss.accept();
out = new PrintWriter(client.getOutputStream(), true);
//You should probably assign it to a seperate thread to handle stuff for this client
}
And I should explain on why you're getting that particular error. When something says that the connection is refused, it usually means that the IP Address you want to connect to knows your sending a connection and is blocking it because it was not listening for that connection. Basically, when the server closed, you stopped listening for the client, so anything that came in on that port would be blocked. Of course, the other case could be that Java was blocked on your firewall and an exception should be made for it. Although this is rarely the case if what you're trying to accomplish is over a LAN.

You're not actually using "hostname" in your Socket object in the client are you?
It should the 192.168.1.1.

Are you on Windows? and If so have you added java.exe and javaw.exe to Firewall with inbound and outbound enabled? and have you added a rule for 5513 to your Firewall?
If yes Windows but no Firewall settings, that's your answer, open up your Firewall.
