unable to read file from ftp in android?
<p>I am trying to read data from a file from ftp server. This piece of code works perfectly in java when i run from my desktop computer. I copied over the same code to android and i am getting an exception. The Exception is:</p>

<p>java.io.IOException: Unable to connect to server: Unable to retrieve file: 550</p>

<p>I have no idea why it is occurring when the same code is working perfecty in java.
The java code is:</p>

<pre><code>String s = "ftp://username:password@ftp.mysite.x10.mx:21/sg1996text.txt;type=i";
    URL u;
    String f="";
    try {
        u = new URL(s);
        URLConnection uc=u.openConnection();
        BufferedInputStream bis=new  BufferedInputStream(uc.getInputStream()); //This is where exception i raised.
        System.out.println("IS opened");
        int i;
        while((i=bis.read())!=-1)
            f=f+(char)i;
        System.out.println("File Read");
    } catch (MalformedURLException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    } 
</code></pre>
