Hi everybody,

I'm trying to make a simple httpconnection using the 8900 simulator with 4.6.1 and eclipse plug-in. I think I've made everything I should but maybe I'm wrong. I launch the simulator through eclipse and I've checked the "Launch MDS-CS" with simulator.

Neither this piece of code, nor my simulator browser are able to stablish a connection. On simulator I get a InterruptedIOException, Local timed out after 120000 .

StreamConnection s = (StreamConnection)Connector.open("http://www.google.com");
HttpConnection httpConn = (HttpConnection)s;
int status = httpConn.getResponseCode();

I've read that maybe it's that MDS simulator is not really running. How can I Know if it's already running?

Thanks in advance

You should launch MDS simulator manually or set in JDE to launch MDS along with device simulator.

If MDS simulator is not included in your JDE package - get it here:

select "Blackberry Email and MDS simulators package"

I'm already launching MDS along with simulator (at least it's checked in my Run configurations>simulator>general>Launch MDS...) but i don't really know if it's already launched.

Anyway, launching it manually using run.bat inside "\net.rim.eide.componentpack4.6.1_4.6.1.23\components\MDS" has the same effect. It doesn't work.

Any other idea?

Thanks for your help but those path related issues are correctly set in my computer...

I'm using jdk1.6.0_12 and I suppose is ok for my blackberry environment. My path is ok,I don't have JAVA_HOME environmental variable (it also doesn't work if I use it), and setBMDSEnv.bat was already ok and I didn't have to check it.

Any ideas are welcomed...

Are you trying to launch run.bat from a command-line console, or are you just double-clicking on it.  When I just double-click on it a new command prompt pops open for a second and then closes -- without actually running the MDS simulator.  However, if I execute "run.bat" from an already open command console, it works just fine.  Try that if you haven't already.

Thanks for your answer!

I was trying by double-clicking on it. Now I've just tried it using a console and it's the same...as you say a command prompt pops for a second and closes.

I keep searching

Is the command prompt you were executing it from running as an administrator if you're using Vista or Win7?

I'm using windows xp. My account has administrator privileges if it's what you're asking...
