I am trying to Zip file using ZipOutputStream but it's throwing StringIndexOutOfBoundsException while passing a FileOutPutStream object. The code was working fine when I ran it as a separate java class but when I integrated it with my project, it's throwing the exception.

I used this code:

byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];

try{
    FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("C:\\Report.zip");

    //error throwing at this point (java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException)

    ZipOutputStream zos = new ZipOutputStream(new BufferedOutputStream(fos));

    FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream("C:\\Report.xls");

    zos.putNextEntry(new ZipEntry("Report.xls"));

    int len;

    while ((len = in.read(buffer)) > 0) {
                    zos.write(buffer, 0, len);
                    }

    in.close();

    zos.closeEntry();

    zos.close();
}catch(IOException ex){
           Log.report.debug(ex.toString());
        }

Please post the _full_ stacktrace – The Guy with The Hat Dec 06 '13 at 15:58
Where is your `buffer`? – nullByteMe Dec 06 '13 at 16:00
Hi Ryan that is the only thing showing in stacktrace – user2677254 Dec 06 '13 at 16:01
buffer array is not declared. – Surinder ツ Dec 06 '13 at 16:02
@user2677254 No, it isn't. Your stack trace should look like this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3988788/what-is-a-stack-trace-and-how-can-i-use-it-to-debug-my-application-errors – The Guy with The Hat Dec 06 '13 at 16:05
Hi inquisitor I have edited the code with buffer. – user2677254 Dec 06 '13 at 16:07
I think it is obvious that his buffer and declared and initialised somewhere before that code gets executed... If it wasn't, he wouldn't be able to run his code at all.. Also, how would the lack of a byte array declaration cause his type of error!? – Josh M Dec 06 '13 at 16:08
Hi Ryan I cant print stack trace to our Log so I used toString to print the error – user2677254 Dec 06 '13 at 16:08
Not entirely sure why you're getting this error, but I would start by declaring your buffer. Simply add this before your loop `byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];` – nullByteMe Dec 06 '13 at 16:10
@inquisitor His code wouldn't execute if he didn't have that buffer. That is not his problem. – Josh M Dec 06 '13 at 16:11
@JoshM, thanks I'm still a noob to programming and was just trying to help based on what was provided – nullByteMe Dec 06 '13 at 16:12
see this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3717249/how-do-you-write-a-full-stack-trace-to-the-log for how to get the full stacktrace – b.buchhold Dec 06 '13 at 16:13
Hi b.buchhold I will use the example to get full stack trace thanku :) – user2677254 Dec 06 '13 at 16:16
@user2677254 you should be downvoted because you must run your code seperately before posting here. – Surinder ツ Dec 06 '13 at 16:18
Try: `new ZipOutputStream(fos)` instead. – Josh M Dec 06 '13 at 16:18
@JoshM the code is working fine, but didn't worked after integrating into project. so definitely issue raises on integrating code with project. – Surinder ツ Dec 06 '13 at 16:21
