invalid stream header

[Belkorin]

I am trying to run a chat server, but any time I try to connect to it I get the following error and the server shuts down. Does anyone have any ideas about what could be causing this to happen?

java.io.StreamCorruptedException: invalid stream header

What I think is that you have not set up the sockets you are using properly. Try to print the data of the socket before you are trying to connect.

It also could be the result of a network card or cable that is not working properly. But then you would not be able to post this message.

Hope it helps.
