POError reading .msg file downloaded from servlet
text
Body
copied!<p>I have written a servlet which reads the outlook .msg file using <a href="http://auxilii.com/msgparser/Page.php?id=18000" rel="nofollow">msgparser</a> and writes the content in ServletOutputStream so that it could be downloaded once the url is hit.</p> <p>Problem which i am facing is, that file reports an error when i try to open that downloaded file in outlook.</p> <p>Error says : <strong>Cannot open the file as it may not exists or you may not have permission to access file......</strong></p> <p>Even if the file is in right format (.msg), then too there is such error. I am sure I am doing something wrong while parsing. Please suggest. Below is the servlet code :</p> <pre><code>MsgParser msgp = new MsgParser(); Message msg = msgp.parseMsg("D:\\Demo.msg"); String str1=msg.toString(); byte[] b=str1.getBytes();// here b is byte array //The below code is to open show the pop up so that user can save the msg file.. response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-outlook"+" ;charset=utf-8"); response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment;filename=" + "Demo.msg"); ServletOutputStream servletOutputStream = response.getOutputStream(); DataOutput dataOutput = new DataOutputStream(servletOutputStream); if (b!= null) { response.setContentLength(b.length); for (int i = 0; i < b.length; i++) { dataOutput.writeByte(b[i]); } } if (servletOutputStream != null) { servletOutputStream.flush(); servletOutputStream.close(); } PrintWriter pw = response.getWriter(); pw.println(dataOutput); </code></pre>
