i was trying to connect to my servlet from my standalone java
application.

but i got the errors...

java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 405 for URL:
http://xvcvbcbbbc....

at
sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream(HttpURLConnection.java:791)

i found this is a bug.

i used for connection
http://javaalmanac.com/egs/java.net/Post.html

and to get the data in the servelt side..

int contentLength = request.getContentLength();
out.println("<hr>");
out.println("Content length = " +contentLength);
if (contentLength > 0) {
byte[] buffer = new byte[contentLength];
java.io.InputStream inputStream = request.getInputStream();
inputStream.read(buffer);
String content = new String(buffer);
out.println(content.length());
out.println(content);
}

I googled that and found:

10.4.6 405 Method Not Allowed

The method specified in the Request-Line is not allowed for the
resource identified by the Request-URI. The response MUST include an
Allow header containing a list of valid methods for the requested
resource.

-----
405    Method Not Allowed    The request method is not allowed.
Typically when trying to execute a normal document or display a
script.

405    Method not allowed     The method specified in the

Basically they are all telling you the right half of your URL is
buggered.

If you ever go to Boston, you have to try the local specialty, scrod,
fresh young cod. I was once on a business trip there and went
wandering the city in search of the delicacy. I don't like asking
directions, but I was getting impatient and hungry, so I finally asked
an old guy selling newspapers, "where can I get scrod?" He replied,
"I've been asked that question many times before, but never by a
Canadian in the pluperfect subjunctive. The above story is apocryphal,
as many of your over 50s can attest.
