java.io.IOException Open Tunel Failure error
 

Hi,
I am facing problem while requesting to the server on my blackberry device.

When i try to open the connection using below statement it will give java.io.IOException Open Tunel Failure error. I have checked the TCP settings and APN settings are proper. Other application like ymsngr and gtalk are working fine but my midlet is not working. I am using Airtel Blackberry and APN is airtelgprs.com.


HttpConnection con = (HttpConnection) Connector.open("http://google.com");


Can anybody help me?

Thanks
Shailesh

In the most cases it is a wrong or not available APN of your carrier. Call Airtel to check if your device is allowed to connect using their APN.

GoogleTalk (and I guess Yahoo Messenger too) is not using any APN.
