Login error: Java.net.sockettimeoutexception: timeout

Cannot connect with the Android App, 

Keep having this message:

garmin java.net.sockettimeoutexception: timeout

Could you advise please

  • Your Java socket shows SocketTimeoutException means that it takes too long to get respond from other device and your request expires before getting response. This exception is occurring on following condition.

    • Server is slow and default timeout is less, so just put timeout value according to you.
    • Server is working fine but timeout value is for less time. so change the timeout value.

    Solution: A developer can pre-set the timeout option for both client and server operations.

    From Client side:

    Socket socket = new Socket();
    SocketAddress socketAddress = new InetSocketAddress(host, port);
    socket.connect(socketAddress, 12000); //12000 are milli seconds

    From Server side:

    ServerSocket serverSocket = new new ServerSocket(port);
    serverSocket.setSoTimeout(12000);
