Hi,
A java socket exception occurs when you are making a network call and it fails due to some issue,
The reason for a socket exception could be anything: Most likely issues could be:
1) A proxy configuration which does not allow traffic to get successfully routed to the correct resource
2) Failure to connect to the selected resource due to network issue at the destination server
3) Connection is abruptly terminated by client or server
4)A network port is unavailable.
To resolve this error one must monitor network traffic and determine the exact cause of this issue,
The stack trace generally does not give much useful information.
